We are given : m∠WYX=(2x−1)° and m∠WYZ=(4x+1)°.

∠WYX and ∠WYZ are complementary.

We know, sum of complementary angles is = 90°.

So, we need to add ∠WYX and ∠WYZ and set it equal to 90°.

m∠WYX + m∠WYZ = 90°.

Plugging values of ∠WYX and ∠WYZ in the above equation, we get

(2x−1)° + (4x+1)° = 90°.

Removing parentheses from both sides,

2x-1 + 4x+1 =90.

Combining like terms,

2x+4x= 6x and -1+1 =0

6x +0 =90.

6x=90.

Dividing both sides by 6.

6x/6 =90/6

x= 15.

Plugging value of x=15.

m∠WYX=(2x−1)° = 2*15 -1 = 30 -1 =29

m∠WYZ=(4x+1)° = 4*15 +1 = 60+1 = 61.

Therefore, ∠WYX=29° and ∠WYZ=61°.

Ivy is trying to manage the money she spends on lunch. Between eating out and buying groceries for bagged lunches, she wants to
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The monetary choices for Ivy’s lunches is to spend less than $16.67 at restaurants and to spend less than $33.33 on groceries in order to to keep her weekly budget to less than $50.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be determined as follows

x = the amount of dollars spent at restaurants

y = the amount of dollars spent on groceries

Since Ivy decides that she wants to spend at least twice as much on bagged lunches as at restaurants, we have

y = 2x .................. (1)

Since Ivy wants to keep her weekly budget to less than $50, using the x and y, we have:

x + 2x < 50 ............................ (2)

We can now solve for x as follows:

3x + < 50

x < 50 / 3

x < 16.67

Substituting the x < 17 into equation (1) noting that Ivy wants to keep her weekly budget to less than $50, we have:

y < 2 * 16.67

y < 33.33

Therefore, the monetary choices for Ivy’s lunches is to spend less than $16.67 at restaurants and to spend less than $33.33 on groceries in order to to keep her weekly budget to less than $50.
