Answer:

first angle be 30°

second angle be 70°

third angle be 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

first angle be x

second angle be y

third angle be z

x+y+z=180

given, y+z = 5x; z=5x-y

also, z=y+10

5x-y = y+10

5x= 10+y+y = 10+2y

x= (10+2y)/5

x+y+z=180

(10+2y)/5 + y + y+10 = 180

(10+2y)/5 = 180 -2y -10

(10+2y)/5 = 170-2y

multiply both sides by 5

10+2y = 5(170-2y)

10+2y= 850-10y

2y+10y = 850-10

12y= 840

y= 840/12 = 70°

z=y+10 =70+10= 80°

5x= (10+2y) = 10+2(70) = 10+140= 150

x = 150/5 = 30°

There are 36 ribbons of which 1/5 are yellow, 7/15 are pink and the remaining ribbons are
Kay [80]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be x blue ribbons

\therefore \:  \frac{1}{5}  +  \frac{7}{15}  + x = 36 \\   \therefore \:  \frac{1 \times 3}{5 \times 3}  +  \frac{7}{15}  + x = 36 \\ \therefore \:  \frac{3}{15}  +  \frac{7}{15}  + x = 36 \\ \therefore \:  \frac{3 + 7}{15}   + x = 36 \\ \therefore \:  \frac{10}{15}   + x = 36 \\ \therefore \: x = 36 -  \frac{10}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{36 \times 15 - 10}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{540 - 10}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{530}{15} \\ \therefore \: x =  35\frac{5}{15}  \\ \\  \therefore \: x =  35\frac{1}{3} \: are \: blue.  \\

A northbound bus and a southbound bus are at a bus stop at the same time. The northbound bus returns to the bus stop every 20 mi
gulaghasi [49]

The question is essentially asking for the least common multiple of 20 and 25. There are several ways you can find the LCM. One easy way is to divide the product by the GCD (greatest common divisor).

GCD(20, 25) = 5 . . . . . see below for a way to find this, if you don't already know

LCM(20, 25) = 20×25/GCD(20, 25)

... = 500/5 = 100

The buses will be there together again after ...

... B. 100 minutes

_____

You can also look at the factors of the numbers:

... 20 = 2²×5

... 25 = 5²

The least common multiple must have factors that include all of these*, so must be ...

... 2²×5² = 100

___

* you can describe the LCM as the product of the unique factors to their highest powers. 20 has 2 raised to the 2nd power. 25 has 5 raised to the 2nd power, which is a higher power of 5 than is present in the factorization of 20. Hence the LCM must have 2² and 5² as factors.

_____

You can also look at the factorization of 20 and 25 to see that 5 is the only factor they have in common. That is the GCD, sometimes called the GCF (greatest common factor).

Larry spent a total of $\$64.24$ on four books. If each book cost the same amount, how many dollars did each book cost? Express
ASHA 777 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

64.24  = 4x \\  \frac{64.24}{4}  =  \frac{4x}{4}  \\ 16.06 = x

so one book is $16.06
