M∠ rst + m∠ vst = 180°
3 x + 7° + 9 x + 17° = 180°
12 x + 24° = 180°
12 x = 180° - 24°
12 x = 156°
x = 156°: 12
x = 13°
m ∠ rst = 3 · 13° + 7° = 39° + 7° = 46°
m ∠ vst = 180° - 46° = 134°
Answer:
A ) 46° and 134°
I estimate that a total of 50 students participated in the survey
and 18 expressed a desire to learn Spanish.
Response:
B. 255 m
Detailed breakdown:
utilize similar triangles
L / 60 = 85 / 20
L = (85 * 60) / 20
L = 255 m
Start by letting x represent the number of Sam's pencils. Then Sari has 3x (since she has three times as many)
Together they total 28 pencils:
x + 3x = 28
4x = 28 /:4 (divide both sides by 4)
x = 7
So Sam has 7 pencils.
Sari, having three times as many, has 7 * 3 = 21.[[TAG_8]]
