Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adults = a and the number of children = c.

Since the number of people using the pool is 288, we know that a + c = 288

Based on the price information, we know that 1.75c + 2.5a = 528

Combining these two equations allows us to solve for the values of a and c, the process for which follows

a = 288 - c

1.75c + 2.5(288 - c) = 528

c = 256

a = 288 - c = 288 - 256 = 32

a = 32

c = 256

Two lines intersect to form angles 1, 2, 3, and 4 as given. The measure of ∠3 is 38°. What is the measure of ​∠2​ ?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

142° is the measure of angle 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines intersect, they make four angles. The angles facing each other are equal.

Let's say that two lines a and b intersected each other to make angles 1,2,3 and 4 respectively.

The measure of angle 3 = 38 degrees.

We know that the angle 1 is against angle 3 and is equal to 38.

Also Angle 2 and Angle 4 are also against each other and are equal let's say equal to x degrees.

Now, the sum of all four angles = 360 degrees

∠1 + ∠2+ ∠3 + ∠4 = 360°

38° + x + 38° + x = 360°

2x = 360° - 76°

2x = 284°

x = 142°

Hence, ∠2 = 142°

Jake is building a fence around his property. He wants the perimeter to be no more than 100 feet. He also wants the length to be
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

C. 20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = width

Let y = length

If the length is at least 10 feet longer than the width:

⇒ x + 10 ≤ y

⇒ x ≤ y - 10

If the perimeter is to be no more than 100 ft:

⇒ 2x + 2y ≤ 100

⇒ x + y ≤ 50

⇒ x ≤ 50 - y

Equate the equations for x and solve for y:

⇒ y - 10 = 50 - y

⇒ 2y = 60

⇒ y = 30

Substitute found value of y into one of the inequalities for x:

⇒ x ≤ 30 - 10

⇒ x ≤ 20

Therefore, the maximum possible width of the fence is 20 feet.
