Both of these problems will be solved in a similar way, but with different numbers. First, we set up an equation with the values given. Then, we solve. Lastly, we plug into the original expressions to solve for the angles.
[23] ABD = 42°, DBC = 35°
(4x - 2) + (3x + 2) = 77°
4x+ 3x + 2 - 2 = 77°
4x+ 3x= 77°
7x= 77°
x= 11°
-
ABD = (4x - 2) = (4(11°) - 2) = 44° - 2 = 42°
DBC = (3x + 2) = (3(11°) + 2) = 33° + 2 = 35°
[24] ABD = 62°, DBC = 78°
(4x - 8) + (4x + 8) = 140°
4x + 4x + 8 - 8 = 140°
4x + 4x = 140°
8x = 140°
8x = 140°
x = 17.5°
-
ABD = (4x - 8) = (4(17.5°) - 8) = 70° - 8° = 62°
DBC =(4x + 8) = (4(17.5°) + 8) = 70° + 8° = 78°
I'm tentatively changing my answer to say this kind of relies on practical knowledge of how stores tend to operate. If 20 coupons are given out, the store has sold all 500 shirts, arguably at a loss to the retailer. They have to have more shirts in stock to be sold at full price because, well, that's how they make money. It's more likely that such a store would carry more than just 500 shirts at the start of each day, so A is (probably) wrong.
The process used is division. If you go to math is fun.com they have a really good step by step example on how to do this. Please give this brainliest answer if I helped.
