Answer:

The cost of posting one letter = £1.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount Amina has = £20

Amina's change = £14.96

Total cost spent on posting the letters = £20 - £14.96 = £5.04

And we're told that she posts 3 letters in total, with the cost of posting each letter the same.

Cost of posting 3 letters = £5.04

Cost of posting only 1 letter = (£5.04/3) = £1.68

Hence, the cost of posting a letter = £1.68

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

c = £1.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- Amina posts 3 letters

- Total amount paid, P = £ 20

- Change received, R = £14.96

Find:-

what is the cost of posting one letter?

Solution:-

- The cost of 3 letters (C) can be determined from the amount paid and change received as follows:

                             C = P - R

                             C = 20 - 14.96

                             C = £5.04

- The cost of single unit (c), assuming all units sold are identical then we have:

                             c = C / total units purchased

                             c = £5.04 / 3

                             c = £1.68

137 - 16X = Y

Since Lorraine is picking blackberries in her backyard at a rate of 15 berries per minute, and after 16 minutes of picking, there are still 137 blackberries left to pick, to determine an equation that models how many berries are left (y) after x minutes of picking, the following calculation must be performed:

137 - 16X = Y

Thus, for example, after 5 minutes the calculation would be as follows:

  • 137 - 16 x 5 = Y
  • 137 - 80 = Y
  • 57 = Y

Can someone pls help me find this is important
Olenka [21]

Answer:

x=90° and y=35°

Step-by-step explanation:

to get x and y first you must find the middle angles based on the information you have so:

35+90+n=180° solve for n to get what the middle angles are (since they are vertical angles they are equal) so the middle angles are both 55 degrees

and then 180-x=that angle that is also on the line with x so we'll call it k

so k+55+y=180°

we can see that y equals 35* because I noticed that those are parallel lines on the outside of the triangle so 35* and y angles are congruent and y =35°

now 35+55+k=180°

solve for the angle next to x which we called k and it is 90°

so x=90° and y=35°

after all this math I realized that if they are parallel lines then we can just use that to figure it out so use the properties to find out that x=90° and y=35°
