Answer:
x = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180
40 + x+20 + x = 180
Combine like terms
2x+60 =180
Subtract 60 from each side
2x+60-60 =180-60
2x =120
Divide by 2
2x/2 =120/2
x = 60
Well, there are different ways to do this if you are really familiar with fractions, but "officially" :P
1) convert mixed numbers to improper fractions.
rule: a b/c = (ac+b)/c
2) make all fractions have a common denominator...
a/b+c/d
(a/b)(d/d)+(c/d)(b/b)
(ad/bd)+(cb/bd)
3)
The simplify your final answer with greatest common denominator or convert back to mixed number if needed...
Let 
be the unknown number. So, three times that number means 
, and the square of the number is 
We have to sum 528 and three times the number, so we have 
Then, we have to subtract this number from , so we have
The result is 120, so the equation is
This is a quadratic equation, i.e. an equation like 
. These equation can be solved - assuming they have a solution - with the following formula
If you plug the values from your equation, you have
So, the two solutions would be
But we know that x is positive, so we only accept the solution 
Answer:4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2/6=x/4 cross multiply
6x=8 x=8/6 =4/3 Divide and simplify
Answer:
your answer would be
B complexity
I agree that it is B but would suggest that you also consider the implications of each answer. They are all technically correct.
A is correct simply due to the fact that the longer time passes without an ebola cure, the more people can be potentially infected with it, resulting in less healthy individuals that may be able to volunteer to test potential ebola vaccines. Scientists need healthy volunteers from affected regions in order for rapid clinical trials to occur.
B is correct because of the nature of epidemics. A combination of technical, social, economic, and geographical obstacles slow the progress and dissemination of ebola vaccine information.
C is correct because finance impacts everything from finding resources used in studying ebola to distributing vaccines to affected areas. Economic imbalances or money shortages negatively impact research.
D is correct due to many social factors (more of a subjective answer). Some people think that vaccine distributors discriminate against certain ethnic groups. Others think the governments/other organizations are not effective enough at managing the situation. Still others feel that the search for a cure is not being approached in the right way. In all, there are multiple ways to oppose different aspects of ebola research.
Ultimately, B is correct because it seems to capture the meaning of A, C, and D together.
