We can find the bat's wholesale cost by working backwards -
Do $41 - 9 to get $32, then we can divide the 32 by the 4 to get $8.
Therefore, the wholesale cost of the bat is $8.
Happy to help!
3(a+b) and 3a+b: not equivalent
4(x+2y) and 8y+4x: equivalent
8*(n+6)=80
distribute
8n+48 = 80
subtract 48 from each side
8n = 32
divide by 8
n=4





Combining like terms, we have



Given:


To find:
The value of x and measure of ∠A.
Solution:
Let C be angle the vertically opposite to ∠A.
The reference image for answer is attached below.
By vertical angle theorem:
m∠A = m∠C
m∠C = 10x + 24°
By the corresponding angle theorem:
m∠C = m∠B

Subtract 24° on both sides.

Subtract 6x from both sides.

Divide by 4 on both sides.

The value of x is 12°.



The measure of ∠A is 144°.
