Hi!

We will solve this using proportions, like this:

24 patients in 5 hours

x patients in 8 hours

_________________

x = (24*8)/5

x = 192/5

x = 38,4

The nurse will be able to see 38,4 patients in a 8-hour period, but because it's patients we are talking about, living things which can't be represented in decimal form, the nurse will be able to see approximately 38 patients in a 8-hour period.

Hope this helps!

They can because of zero property. If we set them equal to zero we get their roots which is 3 and -2. This is the same on the x axis which is goes through. We can mark these points.

If x and y are complementary angles, then y is a right angle.<br><br> right?
Nikitich [7]
Always because the sum of x and y is 180 degrees. If x and y are right angles, then x and y are supplementary angles. Never because the sum of x and y has to be 90 degrees. If x and y are complementary angles, then y is a right angle.

The answer is "$94."

If all 6 friends spent $420 on kayaks, and $144 on food, then they spent $564 in total. Divide $564 by 6 people to see how much each person payed.

420+144=564
564÷6=94

Can anyone help me with this?

Answer:

x = 51

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shown is a pentagon

The angles in a pentagon add up to equal 540

Which means that 77 + 107 + 156 + 149 + x = 540

                                    ^ ( note that we just created an equation that we can      

                                        use to solve for x )

We then solve for x using that equation

77 + 107 + 156 + 149 + x = 540  

step 1 combine like terms

77 + 107 + 156 + 149 = 489

we now have 489 + x = 540

step 2 subtract 489 from each side

489 - 489 cancels out

540 - 489 = 51

we're left with x = 51
