Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
The contiguous U.S. consist of all states beside Alaska and Hawaii; therefore, there are 48 contiguous U.S. states. However, the ratio given to us only consists of 16 states [7 + 9 = 16]. If we need to expand the ratio, we multiply 16 by 3 to get 48. Thus, we also multiply each of the terms by 3, and the ratio becomes 21:27. Therefore, the number of contiguous U.S. states that border an ocean is 21.
Answer:
C. Supplementary angles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
<AFB = 72
Required
Relationship of <AFB and <AFD
<AFB and <AFD are on a straight line and angle on a straight line is 180
From the presentation of both angles,
<AFB + <AFD = 180
Substitute 72 for <AFB
72 + <AFD = 180
Make <AFB the subject of formula
<AFD = 180 - 72
<AFD = 108
Since both <AFB and <AFD sums to 180, then they are supplementary angles.
Hence, the relationship between both angles is supplementary angles
1/2x-7=1/3x-4,
1/2x-3=1/3x,
1/2x-1/3x=3
1/6x=3/1/6
Final answer x=18
I hope you understand and best wishes!!
It is correct because if you do the math you will come up with 48 - 24k = 48 - 24k
