Answer:
decrease by 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Decreased by 60% = (100%-60%)x = 0.4x.
Decreased by 20% = (100%-20%)x = 0.8x.
initial fraction, and we can see that denominator will increase 2 times, so fraction will decrease 2 times, or decrease by 50%.
Answer:
∠ 4 = 130°
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.
∠ 4 is an exterior angle of the triangle , so
∠ 4 = ∠ 1 + ∠ 2 ( substitute values )
11x + 9 = 6x + 6 + 4x + 14 , that is
11x + 9 = 10x + 20 ( subtract 10x from both sides )
x + 9 = 20 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
x = 11
Then
∠ 4 = 11x + 9 = 11(11) + 9 = 121 + 9 = 130°
your friend may have only calculated ∠ 1
∠ 1 = 6x + 6 = 6(11) + 6 = 66 + 6 = 72°
Answer:
64.
Step-by-step explanation:
By proportion to number of orange marbles = (40 / 5) * 8
= 320 / 5
= 64 .
Answer:
No, the polygons aren't similar since they don't have a constant scale factor.
Width of the rectangle is 14 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Let the width of the rectangle be x. Then length = 8 + x. Perimeter = 72 ft.
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
72 = 2 (8 + x + x)
72 = 16 + 4x
4x = 56
x = 56/4 = 14
∴ Width of the rectangle is 14 ft
