1: establish the angles, basically label one x (the small one) and the other y (the bigger one)
2. supplementary angles add up to 180, so therefore you have the equation x + y = 180.
3. so y (the bigger one) is 8 less than 3 times the smaller one (x) therefore you come up with the equation y = 3x - 8
4. plug in the equation of the bigger one into the other equation
x + 3x - 8 = 180
(combine like terms)
4x - 8 = 180
5. solve the equation by adding 8 to 180, then by dividing by 4.
x should equal 47
6. plug in 47 into the x + y = 180 equation, subtract 47 from 180 and you end up with 133
i hope i explained it alright
Answer:
Length = 30
Width = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
So the formula for perimeter is
P = 2L+2W
And we know that:
L = 6W
So then we put in all the information that we do know
70 = 2(6W)+2W
And pop that into a calculator and you get W=5
So now we put that information into L = 6W to get:
L = 6×5
L = 30
Answer: 0.92 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Roberto will make 11 pounds of fudge but wants to give it away as presents to 12 friends.
Each friend will therefore get;
= 11 pounds/ 12
= 0.92 pounds
Are there any answer choices because this question has multiple answers.
