Since they're vertical angles, they're equal in degree measure
since they're equal, we can make the two expressions equal to each other
5a - 1 = 2a + 20
add 1 to both sides
5a = 2a + 21
subtract 2a from both sides
3a = 21
divide both sides by 3a
a = 7
now, plug the answer you found for a into one of the two expressions
5a - 1 becomes (5*7) - 1, which equals 34
to double check that they're equivalent (since they're vertical angles)
2a + 20 becomes (2*7) + 20, which equals 34
both angles are 34 degrees!
Answer: 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find the increase in numbers
26-20= 6
Now you find the percent. This means you're looking for the percent 6 is equal to when compared to 20. The easiest way is to divide the increase by the original number
6/20= 0.3
To convert that to percent, multiply it by 100
0.3 * 100= 30%
There was a 30% increase.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is: 4,500,000 kilometers or in scientific notation: 4.5 x 10^6 kilometers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply to get the answer:
300,000 * 15 =
4,500,000 km
In scientific notation: 4.5 x 10^6
