Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ DCE = ∠ ACE ( vertically opposite angles )

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , then

∠ DCE = 180° - (100 +x) = 180 - 100 - x = 80 - x

∠ ACE = 180 - (49 + 4x) = 180 - 49 - 4x = 131 - 4x

Equating the 2 angles

80 - x = 131 - 4x ( add 4x to both sides )

80 + 3x = 131 ( subtract 80 from both sides )

3x = 51 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 17

Sally works as an estimator for​ G&J Electric. She has determined that 550 feet of electrical cable will be needed to wire a
GuDViN [60]

Given :

Initial length of electric cable needed, L=550\ ft.

Later, Sally is told that the homeowner has decide to cut back from a​ three-car garage to a​ two-car garage, which will eliminate two branch​ circuits, one of 23 feet and the other of 34 feet.

To Find :

How many feet of wire will be needed​ now.

Solution :

Wire needed is given by :

Required = Total wire - ( length of 1nd branch + length of 2nd branch )

Required = 550 - ( 23 + 34 )

Required = 550 - ( 57 ) ft

Required = 443 ft

Therefore, length of wire required is 443 ft.

Hence, this is the required solution.

How do you create your equations when working on a mixture word problem?

Let's try to think about the general form of a word problem involving mixtures.

In general, we have the following scenario:

a merchant sells two kinds of products (coffee, sweets, etc).

we know the unit prices for both kinds of products and for the final mixture

p

1

US dollars per pound for the first kind of product,

p

2

US dollars per pound for the second kind of product

p

m

US dollars per pound for the mixture

we know the total quantity formed by the mixture of the two products (

q

pounds)

we have to find out the quantities of each product needed to form the mixture

(here we have the variables:

x

denoting the quantity of the first kind of product and

y

denoting the quantity of the second kind of product)

Now, we have sufficient information to work out the equations.

First, we know that the sum of the two quantities is

q

pounds, which gives us the first equation:

x

+

y

=

q

Second, we know that the sale price is the product of quantity and unit price, which gives us the second equation:

p

1

x

+

p

2

y

=

p

m

⋅

q

Now, we have a system of two linear equations that can be easily solved by substitution.
