The little tic marks on each of the triangle's sides are there to tell you that the sides are all equal, and therefore, yes, it is an equilateral triangle.

Since all the sides are equal, a geometry theorem tells us that all the angles are equal.

You may try to set the two expressions for the two angles equal to each other, but you will still be stuck.

Since all three angles are equal, and since there are a total of 180 degrees in a triangle, each angle has to be 60 degrees.

So to find y, set the expression for angle A equal to 60 and solve for y.

60 = 5y + 10
50 = 5y
10 = y

y = 10

If total advertising expenditures on television advertising declined 4.1% to $141.7 billion in the current year, how much was sp
Vanyuwa [196]

Using proportions, it is found that $147.8 billion was spent on television advertising in the previous year.

  • $x, in billions, was spent on advertising expenditures on television last year.
  • This year, the amount declined 4.1%, hence it is 100% - 4.1% = 95.9% of last year's amount, that is, 0.959x.

This year spending's is of 141.7 billion, hence, the equation is:

0.959x = 141.7

x = \frac{141.7}{0.959}

x = 147.8

$147.8 billion was spent on television advertising in the previous year.

Answer:

a).  x + y + 90° = 180°

b).  x = 67°

    y = 23°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°.

One of the angles in the figure is a right angle, or 90°.  Therefore the sum of the three angles in the figure is:

x + y + 90 = 180

We are also told that x + 2 = 3y.  

Rearranging that to isolate x gives us:  

x = 3y - 2

Thake the first equation and substitute the above expression of in place of x:

x + y + 90° = 180°

(3y-2) + y + 90° = 180°

4y + 88° = 180°

4 y = 92°

y = 23°

To find angle x, use y = 23°

x = 3y - 2

x = 3*(23°) - 2

x = 67°

The sum 90° + 67° + 23° = 180°
