In a math final please help asap<br><br> find the angle r show ur work
Schach [20]

Answer:

The measure of angle R is 112 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given markings, we can see that we have an isosceles triangle

so RT is also 3x-2

Mathematically, the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180:

Thus;

9x + 4 + (3x-2) + (3x-2) = 180

9x + 3x +3x + 4-2-2 = 180

15x = 180

x = 180/15

x = 12

Recall; Angle R is 9x + 4

= 9(12) + 4 = 108 + 4 = 112

2x-4y=0<br> -x+2y=1<br><br> trying to solve
Leni [432]

So you have your equations: 2x-4y=0 and -x+2y=1

Depending on the variable you want to take out, depends on how your equation will be set up, but, I'm going to take out X.

With the first equation you subtract 2x from 0 which leaves you with -4y=-2

Divide the sum and you get a positive 2x.

Plug 2 into X on the following equation, it should look like this. -2+2y=1. This time you're trying to find Y so, add 2 to 1 and you get 2y=3. Divide this and it should give you a decimal.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The land which are used for exhibits are <u>89 acres</u> (approximately).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Village is spread across 240 acres of land. 37%  of land is used for the exhibits.

Now, we have to find acres of land which are used for exhibits.

So, here it is given that land used for exhibits is 37%, and we have to calculate the quantity from the percentage given:

According to question:

37% of 240 acres of land.

\frac{37}{100}\times 240

0.37\times 240

88.80

So, the land used for exhibits are 88.80 acres.

Therefore, the land which are used for exhibits are <u>89 acres </u>(approximately).
