38.=721.8 it's really just a matter of multiplication. I only have he answer for this one but, y'know, work and whatnot. If you would multiply 3 by 3 than wou would do the same for this problem
168/8 = x
x=21
Thus your equation is 21x where x equals amount of hours worked and 21 equals the amount he makes per hour
2 because you do what is in parenthesis first :)
Man, I have to be honest with you, I have no clue. But here is something else though. I had to take Geometry last year, and you are right. It does suck. But, you will get through it! There is a light at the end of the tunnel and you will get it! Keep up the good work!
This problem is accompanied by a figure.
You can infere these relationships from the figure
(x-5)° = 74° => x = 74 + 5 = 79°
(x-5)° + 58° + (y-1)° = 180 ° => 74 + 58 + y-1 = 180 =>
y = 180 + 1 - 58 - 74 = 47°
Answer: x = 79°, y = 47°. This is the option d)
