He began with 10. Because if he bought 8 after selling half of his books and now his total is 13, then 13-8=5
so 5+5=10

Can someone help me

m < 1 = 130°

m < 1 = 130°m < 2 = 50°

We know this is a linear pair, therefore the two angles must add up to 180°

$(m < 1 )+ (m < 2 )= 180$

$5x + x + 24 = 180$

Combine like terms

$6x + 24 = 180$

Isolate the variable

$6x = 156$

$x = 26$

Plug in 26 for x in both of the individual angle equations.

$m < 1 = 5x$

$= 5(26)$

$= 130$

$m < 2 = x - 24$

$= (26) + 24$

$= 50$

A good way to check if we did this correctly, is to add up the two angles. Because 180 + 50 = 180, we did this correctly.

I hope this helped. Let me know if you have any questions!

Solve 0= 2t^3-21t^2+ 40t

sukhopar [10]

$0=2t^3-21^2+40t$
switch sides
$2t^3-21t^2+40t=0$
solve factoring
$t(t-8)(2t-5)=0$
using the zero factor principle
$t=0
$
solve
$t-8=0:t=8$
solve
$2t-5=0:t= \frac{5}{2}$
$t=0,t=8,t= \frac{5}{2}$
Hope this helps
