Answer:
m∠A = 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
In isosceles triangle base angles are congruent. That means we can equate measurments of angle B and angle C and solve for x!
m∠B = m∠C
11x - 10 = 7x + 10
4x - 10 = 10
4x = 20
x = 5
Now let's insert x back in the expressions for angles.
m∠B = (11x − 10)° = (11(5) − 10)° = 45°
m∠C = (7x + 10)° = (7(5) + 10)° = 45°
<u>Sum of all angles in the triangle is 180°.</u> Let's make an equation.
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
m∠A + 45°+ 45° = 180°
m∠A = 90°
Steps to solving equations:
Simplify/combine the like terms
Isolate the variable (Get the variable on one side
Solve for the variable
-2y - 7 + 5y = 13 - 2y Simplify/Combine terms
3y -7 = 13 - 2y Isolate variable by adding 2y to both sides
5y - 7 = 13 Add 7 to both sides to get y alone on one side
5y = 20 Divide by 5 on both sides to solve for y
y = 4
You can check your answer by replacing y with 4 in the original equation.
Answer:The new cost per person= $19 when there are 12 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Let Number of people be rep as N
And Cost per person = C
such that the relationship of number of people which varies inversely with the cost per person is given as
N∝ 1/C
Introducing constant of proportionality, k, we have that
N= K/C
such that when there were 4 people the cost per person was $57, K would be
N= K/C
4 = K /57
k= 57 X 4
k=228
Step 2
Therefore If the number of people changed to 12, cost per person would be
N= K/C
12= 228 / C
C= 228/12
C= 19
The new cost per person= $19 when there are 12 people
Answer:
1.5 for half a batch and 1 and 0.16666666.. batch
Step-by-step explanation:
3 cups=1 batch so 3/2= 1.5 cups=1/2 batch
4 cups=1 and .1666 batches
So first, I would assign the small van a variable for how many people it can hold, or x.
So since it makes two trips,
2x
And since the other van can hold six more people,
2x + x + 6
And 57 people are transported:
3x + 6 = 57
We can then solve.
3x = 57 - 6
3x = 51
x = 17
So since we now know a small can hold 17 people, and we know that the larger van has 6 more seats, we can just say
17 + 6 = 23
So the large van has 23 seats.
