Answer:

  • 1220 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cans be x

<u>5% of x is 61, solve the equation below for x:</u>

  • x*0.05 = 61
  • x = 61/0.05
  • x = 1220 cans

Determine the unknown angle measures in the figure.<br><br>HELP NOW!!! please
maw [93]

Answer:

m∠1=80°

m∠2=112°

m∠3=131°

m∠4=80°

m∠5=37°

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find m∠2

To do that find m∠6 (I created this angle shown in pic below)

Find m∠6 by using the sum of all ∠'s in a Δ theorem

m∠6=180°-(63°+49°)

m∠6=68°

Now you can find m∠2 with the supplementary ∠'s theorem

m∠2=180°-68°

m∠2=112°

Then you find m∠5 using the sum of all ∠'s in a Δ theorem

m∠5=180°-(112°+31°)

m∠5=37°

Now you can find m∠1

m∠1=180°-(63°+37°)

m∠1=180°-100°=80°

m∠4 can easily be found too now:

m∠4=180°-(63°+37°)

m∠4=80°

m∠3=180°-49°

m∠3=131°
