- 30 degrees
We + Th + Fr = 3 * 25 = 75 --- (1)
Th + Fr + Sa = 3 * 24 = 72 --- (2)
(1) - (2):
We - Sa = 3
We = 3 + Sa = 3 + 27 = 30 degrees - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(20) No(0)
- answer is 30 degrees
W+TH+f=75
T+F+S=72
solving these two equations we get
W-S=3
substitute s=27
then w=30 degrees - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
