Okay, first let's look at what they give us!
The measure of angle 2 is 3x + 1
Measure of angle 3 is 2x + 4
And they give us that one angle is right which means it is 90°
Now if we use what we know of triangles, we know that all the angles in a triangle add up to equal 180 which means if we add angle 2, angle 3, and the right angle together we should get 180. Let's write an equation for it:
3x + 1 + 2x + 4 + 90 = 180
First we will add together liked terms!
3x + 2x = 5x
1 + 4 + 90 = 95
This gets us:
5x + 95 = 180
Second, let's get rid of that 95 by subtracting it from both sides, after doing this it should leave us with:
5x = 85
Third we need to get the x by itself and we can do it by dividing both sides by 5 to get:
x = 17
Now the question asks to find the measure of angle 2, given that angle 2 is 3x + 1 all there is left to do is to plug in 17 for x!
3(17) + 1
51 + 2 to get us 52!
Answer: 52
Answer:
The correct answer is option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by analyzing the information we have.
We know that Carmen pays 5% tax on everything she buys, and has made a purchase of $ 70.
But they also tell us that there is $ 25 of that purchase that will not be charged with taxes.
Therefore, what will be charged with taxes will be:
70-25 = 45
Now we must know how much is 5% of 45 and that we can find out by multiplying 45 by 0,05:
45.0,05 = 2,25
Now that we know that the tax was 2.25, we just have to add it to the total purchase to find out how much Carmen paid:
2.25 + 70 = 72.25
Therefore, the total value of the purchase is 72.25.
