How do i do this, my son is struggling and he needs help
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

angle a is the outside angle. It creates a circle that will always equal 360 degrees. Since the outside angle is 302, the inside angle must be 58 degrees (360-302). The top square angle will be 90 degrees (a square angle is always 90 degrees). Since the angles in a triangle always add up to 180 degrees, we need to add 58 and 90, and then subtract it from 180, which equals 32. So, angle x equals 32.

At a particular restaurant, each onion ring has 65 calories and each slider has 250 calories. A combination meal with onion ring
andre [41]

Answer:

The number of onion rings is <u>3</u> in the combination meal and the number of sliders is <u>2</u> in the combination meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

At a particular restaurant, each onion ring has 65 calories and each slider has 250 calories. A combination meal with onion rings and sliders has a total of 5 onion rings and sliders altogether and contains 695 calories.

Now, to find the number of onion rings in the combination meal and the number of sliders in the combination meal.

Let the number of onion rings in the combination meal be x.

And let the number of sliders in the combination meal be y.

<u><em>So, the total number of onion rings and sliders are:</em></u>

x+y=5\\\\y=5-x\ \ \ .....(1)

Now, the total number of calories each onion rings and sliders has:

x(65)+y(250)=695

Substituting the value of y from equation (1) we get:

<em />x(65)+(5-x)(250)=695\\\\65x+1250-250x=695\\\\1250-185x=695<em />

<em>Subtracting both sides by 1250 we get:</em>

<em />-185x=-555<em />

<em>Dividing both sides by -185 we get:</em>

x=3.

<u><em>The number of onion rings in the combination meal = 3.</em></u>

Now, substituting the value of x in equation (1) we get:

y=5-x\\\\y=5-3\\\\y=2.

<u><em>The number of sliders in the combination meal = 2.</em></u>

Hence, the number of onion rings is 3 in the combination meal and the number of sliders is 2 in the combination meal.
