Answer:

<h3>2/3 lost is 1/3 kept</h3>

<h3>2/3 of the 1/3 kept is 2/9 lost</h3>

  • 1/3 x - 2/9 x = 4

  • 3/9 x - 2/9 x = 4

  • 1/9 x = 4

  • x = 36

<h3>First she lost 2/3 of 36, which is 24. She had 12 left. Then she lost 2/3 of 12 which is 8. She had 4 left.</h3>

  • Hence she started with $36 .

What is the value of x<br> What is the value of the exterior angle
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

???????

Step-by-step explanation:

triangles add to 180 degrees

lets call the unknown angle y

82 + x + y = 180

we also know that y + (2x-20 ) = 180  because it is a straight line

lets solve this for y

y + (2x-20 ) = 180

subtract (2x-20) from each side

y = 180 - (2x-20)

y = 180 - 2x + 20

y = 200 -2x

substitute this in the triangle equation

82 + x + y = 180

82 + x + 200 -2x = 180

combine like terms

282 -x = 180

subtract 282 from each side

-x = -102

multiply by -1 on each side

x = 102

the exterior angle is 2x-20

exterior angle is 2(102) -20

exterior angle is 204-20

exterior angle is 184

This is impossible.


There is a mistake with this problem

The triangle is not a triangle.  Angle y would be negative. y=-4

denpristay [2]

Answer:

9.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is a=bh/2, where a is area, b, is the base, and h is the height. If we substitute the values in the question in the equation, we get:

a=(6.5*3)/2

a=19.5/2

a=9.75

a≈9.8
