the measure of the supplement of an angle is 30 more than twice the measure of the angle. find the measure of the angles

Ierofanga [76]

Triangle= 180 degrees
Angle = 37.5 degrees
Supplement angle = 105 degrees

If you multiply the angle (37.5) by 2 and then add 30, it gives you 105. Then add 37.5 twice to make up the other two angles of the triangle and it gives you 180 total degrees as a triangle should.

Jeans are reduced from 28.00 to 18.20 during a sale at a department store. What percentage was the original price reduced?

Natali [406]

Answer:

The original price was reduced 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Jeans are reduced from $28.00 to $18.20

In this problem

The original price of 28.00 represent 100%

so

using proportion

Find out what percentage represent the difference between the original price and the new price

$\frac{28}{100}=\frac{28-18.20}{x}\\\\x=100(9.8)/28\\\\x=35\%$

therefore

The original price was reduced 35%
