The time between a flash of lightning and the sound of its thunder can be used to estimate the distance you are from a lightning

strike. The distance, in miles, from the strike is approximately the number of seconds between seeing the flash and hearing the thunder divided by 5. Write an equation to show this relationship using t for time in seconds and d for distance in miles.

If you count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder, and then divide by 5, you'll get the distance in miles to the lightning: 5 seconds = 1 mile, 15 seconds = 3 miles, 0 seconds = very close. Keep in mind that you should be in a safe place while counting.

120 people who all need 1 drink, so if each drink needs .5 cups of concentrate you will do 120d × 0.5 = 60 total cups of concentrate. if you then set up a fraction, you could cross multiply to get the answer, but I cant do fractions here so I'll say this: if every 5 cups of concentrate gives 19 cups of water, then you divide 60 cups by 5 cups to see how many "batches" of this recipie you will need, you get 12 batches, so 12 x 19 (cups of water per batch) to get 218 ( I think, check my math with a calculator

Please answer full question below thank you
Yuliya22 [10]

Explanation:

Angles 1 & 2 have to equal 180. So, if ∠1 is equal to 140, ∠2 is equal to 40 because 140 + 40 = 180.

So far... we know that:

  • ∠2 = 40
  • ∠9 = 80

Angles 2, 9, and 11 make a triangle, a triangles "magic number" is also 180. To get 180, you must add up all of the angles. Well... we don't know ∠11 so to find it, you subtract 40 & 80 from 180. 180 - 80 - 40 = 60.

Answer:

∠2 = 40

∠11 = 60
