Answer:

Kay sold 67; Allen sold 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a" represent the number of phones that Allen sold.

a + (a+17) = 117 . . . equation used to find the answer

2a = 100 . . . . . . . . subtract 17, collect terms

a = 50 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; the number Allen sold

a+17 = 67 . . . . . . . . Kay sold 17 more than Allen

Three less than two times a number is 55. What’s the number ?
Musya8 [376]

Let n be a number

2n - 3 = 55

Add 3 to both sides

2n + (-3 + 3) = 55 + 3

2n = 58

Divide 2 to both sides

2n/2 = 58/2

n = 29

Which statement best describes the area of Triangle ABC shown below?
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

  It is one-half the area of a rectangle with sides 4 units × 3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

One side of the triangle is on the line y = 2 between points x=2 and x=6. So, that side has length 6-2 = 4.

The opposite vertex has y-value 5, so is 3 units away from the line y = 2.

The area of the triangle can be considered to have a base of 4 and a height of 3. In the formula ...

  A = (1/2)bh

we find the area to be ...

  A = (1/2)×(4 units)×(3 units) . . . . triangle area

__

A rectangle's area is the product of its length and width. So, a rectangle that is 4 units by 3 units will have an area of ...

  A = (4 units)×(3 units) . . . . rectangle area

Comparing the two area formulas, we see that the triangle area is 1/2 the area of the rectangle with sides 4 units × 3 units.
