Travis bought $9.45 worth of 49-cent stamps and 21-cent stamps. The number of 21-cent stamps was 5 fewer than the number of 49-c

ent stamps. Solve the equation 0.49s+0.21(s−5)=9.45 for s to find the number of 49-cent stamps Travis bought.

Answer:

15 49-cent stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem with the equations <em>0.49(x) + 0.21(y) = 9.45 </em>and <em>x - 5 = y</em>. Well, 0.49(15) + 0.21(10) = 9.45, so we know that there are 15 49-cent stamps and 10 21-cent stamps. The question is asking for the number of 49-cent stamps, so we can tell Travis bought 15 49-cent stamps.

Two angles are complementary. two times the measure of one is equal to 40% of the measure of the other. find the measure of both
Nostrana [21]

The measure of both angles are 112.5 and 68.5 degrees

<h3>Complementary angles</h3>

The sum of two complementary angles is 90 degrees.

If two angles are complementary, then;

x + y = 90

x = 90 - y..........1

where x and y are the angles

If  two times the measure of one is equal to 40% of the measure of the other then;

2x = 0.4y ............2

Substitute equation 1 into 2

2(90-y) = 0.4y

180 - 2y = 0.4y

180 = -0.4y + 2y

1.6y = 180

Divide both sides by 1.6

1.6y/1.6 = 180/1.6

y = 112.5 degrees

For the other angle

x= 180 - y

x = 180 -112.5

x = 68.5 degrees

Hence the measure of both angles are 112.5 and 68.5 degrees

In the figure, three line segments cross at a common point. Angle A is 45°, and angle E is 85°. What is the measurement of angle
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer: Measure angle H = 42°


Step-by-step explanation:

"In a triangle, the measure of the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent angles to the exterior angle"

In given we have,

angle E is an exterior angle to triangle DFH

The two non-adjacent angles to angle E are angles D and H

Based on the above rule,

measure angle E = measure angle D + measure angle H

We are given this:

angle E = 87°

angle D = 45°

Substitute with the givens in the above rule and solve for the measure of angle H as follows:

angle E = angle D + angle H

87° = 45° + measure angle H

measure angle H = 87° - 45°

measure angle H = 42°

Hope this helped!

What is the solution of the equation 14^x=5?<br> Round your answer to the nearest ten-thousandth.
deff fn [24]
Take ln to both sides
ln 14^x = ln 5
then you'll get
x ln 14 = ln 5
divide both sides by ln 14
x = 0.6098533345
after rounding
x = 0.6099
