Answer:

Fraction of fire trucks = \frac{1}{4}

Total number of toy cars = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of sports car = \frac{2}{3}

Fraction of remaining cars =1-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{3-2}{3} =\frac{1}{3}

So,

Fraction of pick up cars = \frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{3})=\frac{1}{12}

Therefore,

Fraction of fire trucks = \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{12}=\frac{4-1}{12}=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}

That is Number of fire trucks = \frac{1}{4} ( Total number of toy cars )

Number of fire trucks = 4

Total number of toy cars = 4(4)=16

For the diagram below, form an equation and then solve it to calculate the value of x
Talja [164]
You apply the sum of interior angles formula ie. (n-2)180. n=number of sides
since a pentagon has 5 sides it will be (5-2)180=540.
now add everything. x-5+x-6+2x-7+x+2x-2=540.
Solve for x: 7x-20=540
7x=540+20
7x=560
x=560/7
x=80

Since we know length and width is x=12 just substitute so

15+15+12+12=54 so 54 is the perimeter
