Answer:

B gains 100 yards every minute. So, after 10 minutes, B has lapped A once.

C gains 100 yards on B every minute, so after 10 minutes C has lapped B.

Thus, after 10 minutes, A has gone 7 laps, B has gone 8 laps, C has gone 9 laps, and all are even again.

Find the measure of each acute angle.
crimeas [40]

The 3 inside angles of a triangle need to equal 180 degrees.

This is a right triangle so the bottom left corner is 90 degrees.

This means the other two angles when added need to equal 180-90 = 90 degrees.

Now you have 8x + 7x = 90

Combine like terms:

15x = 90

Divide both sides by 15

X = 6

Now you have the value for x solve the two angles:

8x = 8(6) = 48

7x = 7(6) = 42

Top left = 48 degrees

Bottom right = 42 degrees

Sia sells large candles for $3 each and small candles for $2 each. She sold 17 candles for $46.00. How many of each size candle
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The number of large size candles sells are 12 and the number of small size candles are 5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Sia sells large candles for $3 each and small candles for $2 each.

She sold 17 candles for $46.00.

Let us assume that the large size candle sells are x .

Let us assume that the small size candle sells are y.

Equation becomes

x + y = 17

3x + 2y = 46

Multiply x + y = 17 by 3 and subtracted from 3x + 2y = 46 .

3x - 3x + 2y - 3y = 46 - 51

-y = - 5

y = 5

Put in the equation x + y = 17 .

x + 5 = 17

x = 17 - 5

x = 12

Therefore the number of large size candles sells are 12 and the number of small size candles are 5 .

A kite has a height of 36 inches and a width of 30 inches. Explain how to use the area formula for a triangle to find the area o
natta225 [31]

Answer:

You can view a kite as 4 triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric kite can easily be viewed as 4 triangles.  The formula to calculate the area of a kite (width x height)/2 is very similar to the one of a triangle (base x height)/2.

According to the formula to calculate the area of a kite, we would get:

(36 x 30)/2 = 540.

If we take the approach of using 4 triangles, we could imagine a shape formed by 4 triangles measuring 18 inches wide with a height of 15.

The area of each triangle would then be: (18 x 15)/2 = 135

If we multiply this 135 by 4... we get 540.
