Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:
Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.
Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.
Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.
11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high. 11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!
It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.
By using the information in the question, find a equation in the y=mx+b form. Then, plug in 37 as the x value and solve for y.
Something that you should remember is that the sum of the angles of a triangle add up to 180°.
Since we are given 100° and that the other two angles are equal, we can set up an equation like this:
, where x is the 2 angles.
Doing the math, the measure of each unknown angles is 40°.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
500-250= 250
there for its half off 50% because its split down the middle, so thats an easy one
the answer is 3/5
if that's not right I apologize
