All sacks of sugar have the same weight. All sacks of flour also have the same weight, but not necessarily the same as the weigh

t of the sacks of sugar. Suppose that two sacks of sugar together with three sacks of flour weigh no more than $40$ pounds, and that the weight of a sack of flour is no more than $5$ pounds more than the weight of two sacks of sugar. What is the largest possible weight (in pounds) of a sack of flour?

Sugar: x pounds
flour: 2x + 5 pounds
2x + 3(2x + 5) = 40
2x + 6x + 15 = 40
8x = 25
x = 3.125
-> a sack of flour is 3.125 + 5 = 8.125 pounds
I hope it‘s coorect

Find m/KMN. L 60° K 1⁰40 6x (11x+15)° N​
miskamm [114]

Answer:

  114°

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle is the sum of the remote interior angles.

__

<h3>setup</h3>

  (11x +15)° = 60° +6x°

<h3>solution</h3>

  5x = 45 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 15+6x

  x = 9 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

The measure of exterior angle KMN is ...

  m∠KMN = (11(9) +15)° = 114°

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Both the sum of interior angles and the sum of angles of a linear pair are 180°. If M represents the interior angle at vertex M, then we have ...

  60° +6x° +M = 180°

  (11x +15)° +M = 180°

Equating these expressions for 180° and subtracting M gives the relation we used above:

  (11x +15)° +M = 60° +6x° +M . . . . . equate the two expressions for 180°

  (11x +15)° = 60° +6x° . . . . . . . . . . . subtract M

This is also described by "supplements to the same angle are equal."

PLEASE HELP
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

x = 8 and y = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a vertical line parallel to the y- axis is

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (8, - 1 ) with x- coordinate 8, then

x = 8 ← equation of vertical line

The equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis is

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (8, - 1 ) with y- coordinate - 1, then

y = - 1 ← equation of horizontal line
