Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

LET:

∠XYW=Y

X,Y and W are the angles of triangle so:

X + Y + W=180

3x+11+Y+5x+1=180

Y=180-12-8x

Y=168-8x

Now ∠XYW and ∠XYZ are the angles of a straight line:

∠XYW+∠XYZ=180

168-8x+12x-20=180

4x+148=180

4x=180-148

4x=32

x=32/4

x=8

Now substitute value of x in Y:

∠(12x-20)=12(8)-20

∠Y=76

17/9 15 divided 6 divided 30 divided and 3^3 from least to greatest

qaws [65]

I assume you mean: Order the following from least to greatest:

17/9, 15 divided by 6, 30, and 3^3

17/9 = 1 8/9

15/6 = 2 1/2

3^3 = 9

So it would be: 17/9, 15 divided by 6, 3^3, and 30

Make necessary adjustments if it was actually 6/30; the wording was confusing.

a construction crew built 4 1/2 miles of Road and 3 3/8 days. What is the unit rate in miles per day? Write your answer as a fra

sineoko [7]

The construction crew took $3\frac{3}{8}$ days to build $4\frac{1}{2}$ miles of road.

Therefore, in 1 day, the crew built $\frac{4\frac{1}{2} }{3\frac{3}{8} }$ miles of road

= $\frac{\frac{9}{2} }{\frac{27}{8} } =\frac{9}{2}times\frac{8}{27}=\frac{4}{3}$ miles of road

Thus, the required rate is $\frac{4}{3}$ miles or $1\frac{1}{3}$ miles per day.

You have a 1-gallon paint can in the shape of a cylinder. One gallon is 231 cubic inches. The radius of the can is 3 inches. Wha

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The approximate height of the paint can is 8.2 in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the cylinder ( can of paint) is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2} h$

we have

$V=231\ in^{3}$

$r=3\ in$

$\pi=3.14$

Substitute the values and solve for h

231=(3.14)(3)^{2} h

h=231/(3.14*9)=8.2 in

Jesse surveyed 3/4 of the students at her school. Of those surveyed, 2/3 participate in school club or sports team. According to

OLga [1]

3/4 * 2/3 = > 6/12 ; Then you simplify it and the answer will be 1/2. Therefore the fraction of the students who participated in a school club/sports team is 1/2.
