Over the last three evenings, Melissa received a total of 126 phone calls at the call center. The first evening, she received 6 more calls than the third evening. The second evening, she received 4 times as many calls as the third evening. How many phone calls did she receive each evening? Number of phone calls the first evening: Number of phone calls the second evening: Number of phone calls the third evening:

calls first evening = 26

calls second evening  = 80

calls third evening = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = calls third evening

x+6 = calls first evening

4x = calls second evening

x+6 + 4x + x = total calls = 126

Combine like terms

6x+6 = 126

Subtract 6 from each side

6x =120

Divide by 6

6x/6 =120/6

x = 20

x+6 = calls first evening = 20+6 = 26

4x = calls second evening = 4*20 = 80

Let x = calls third evening = 20

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

proofs involving isosceles triangles often require special consideration because an isosceles triangle has several distinct properties that do not apply to normal triangles.(more about triangle types) therefore, when you are trying to prove that two triangles are congruent, and one or both triangles, are isosceles you have a few theorems that you can use to make your life easier.

step-by-step explanation:

an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles. the congruent angles are called the base angles and the other angle is known as the vertex angle. ∠bac and ∠bca are the base angles of the triangle picture on the left. the vertex angle is ∠abc
