Let the number of thirds be x.
(2/5) = x(1/3)
2/5 = x/3
x/3 = 2/5
x = 2/5 * 3
x = 6/5
x = 1.2
Two-fifths equals 1.2 thirds
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know that the two lines are parallel because of alternate interior angles (5x-20)=3x
then solve for x
5x-20=3x
-20=-2x
x=10°
The answer is 10.
4 a + 5 b when a = 4 and b = - 1.2
