Answer:
The measure of the vertex angle is 94 degrees ⇒ A
Step-by-step explanation:
- In any triangle, the sum of the measures of its interior angle is 180°
- In the isosceles triangle, the two base angles are equal in measures
∵ In an isosceles triangle, the measure of the base angle = (2x + 5)
∵ The base angles of the isosceles triangles are equal in measures
∴ The measures of the base angles are (2x + 5), (2x + 5)
∵ The measure of the vertex angle = (5x - 1)
∵ The sum of the measure of the three angles = 180°
∴ (2x + 5) + (2x + 5) + (5x - 1) = 180
→ Add the like terms in the left side
∵ (2x + 2x + 5x) + (5 + 5 + -1) = 180
∴ 9x + 9 = 180
→ Subtract 9 from both sides
∴ 9x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9
∴ 9x = 171
→ Divide both sides by 9 to find x
∴ x = 19
→ Substitute the value of x in the measure of the vertex angle to find it
∵ The measure of the vertex angle = 5x - 1
∴ The measure of the vertex angle = 5(19) - 1
∴ The measure of the vertex angle = 95 - 1
∴ The measure of the vertex angle = 94°
∴ The measure of the vertex angle is 94 degrees

Answer: 98.1%
Explanation:
A 10% sale means that the post-sale price of the item is now 90%, or 0.9 of the original cost of the item. We then apply 9% sales tax by multiplying the 0.9 by 109%, or 1.09. 0.9 * 1.09 = .981, so the total cost of the item is 98.1% of the original pre-sale sticker price.
For percentage problems that do not deal with a specific starting number, it is always helpful to plug in 100 for the starting number. Here, we would then have a post-sale price of 90 dollars, and if we calculate the sales tax for the 90-dollar item it would be 90 * 0.09 = $8.10. THis gives us a total cost of 90 + 8.10 = $98.10, or 98.1% of the original 100-dollar price.
