Answer:
He can make 3 batches of soup.
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:
10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.
0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10
We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:
7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5
Convert each to an improper fraction:
72/10 ÷ 12/5
Multiply by the reciprocal:
72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3
All 3 angles of a triangle must equal to 180. You can simply set up an equation to solve this and set it equal to 180.
Angle 1 - 50 + x
Angle 2 - x
Angle 3 - 2x -10
50+x+x+2x-10=180
4x+40=180
4x=140
x=35
Angle 1 = 50+35= 85
Angle 2 = 35
Angle 3 = 2(35) - 10 = 60
60+35+85=180
