The measures of the angles of the isosceles triangle are 55, 55 and 70.

Explanation:

An isosceles triangle has two congruent base angles and a vertex angle.

Let b =the measure of one of the base angles.

Let v = the measure of the the vertex angle.

The vertex angle is 40 degrees less than the sum of the base angles.

v = b + b − 40 = 2 b − 40

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180.

b + b + v = 180

Substitute 2 b − 40 for v .

b + b + 2 b − 40 = 180

4 b − 40 = 180

+40+40

Combine like terms.

Add 40 to both sides.

4b=220

Divide by 4

4 b/4 = 220 /4

b = 55

v = 2 b − 40

v = 2 ( 55 ) − 40 = 70

Answer:

  -19/7

Step-by-step explanation:

If the variation is direct, any multiplier of the m-value will also multiply the f-value.

 old value × 1/7 = new value

 m: 14 × 1/7 = 2

 f: -19 × 1/7 = -19/7

The new value of f is -19/7.

Ms. Smith purchased ½ of a pound of grapes. She would like to make 112pound portions for this week’s snacks. How many portions w
Elodia [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no enough information to determine how many portions she will be able to make.

We need to know how many pounds of grapes will she needs to make a particular pounds portions for the snacks.

For example, if she needs 2 pounds of grapes to make 5 pounds portion for the snacks, and she purchase ½ pounds of grapes, we can determine how many pounds of portions for the snacks she will be able to make with this information.

Using a simple ratio

2:5 = ½:x

2/5 = ½/x

Multiplying both sides by x

(2/5)x = 1/2

Multiplying both sides by 5/2

x = (1/2)×(5/2)

x = 5/4

x = 1¼ pounds

Meaning she will be able to make 1¼ pounds of portion for snacks with ½ pounds of grapes.
