Answer:

The amount of money that Lexi had at the beginning was $131.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> amount of money that Lexi had at the beginning

y -----> amount of money that Maria had at the beginning

we know that

x+y=250 -----> equation A

(1-2/5)x=y-40

(3/5)x=y-40

y=(3/5)x+40 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x

x+(3/5)x+40=250

(8/5)x=250-40

(8/5)x=210

x=210*5/8

x=$131.25

Find the value of x PLEASE EXPLAIN
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

x = 57, x = 111

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180, that is

x + 67 + 56 = 180

x + 123 = 180 ( subtract 123 from both sides )

x = 57

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Similarly

x + 47 + 22 = 180

x + 69 = 180 ( subtract 69 from both sides )

x = 111

Zane calculated the missing side length of one of these triangles using the Pythagorean Theorem. Which triangle is it?
topjm [15]
The pythagorean theorem states that for any RIGHT-ANGLED TRIANGLE, the relationship between the side lengths are A²+B²=C², where C is the hypotenuse :P

Which means that it can only be applied on right angled triangles~
So your answer would be B, a right-angled triangle.
