Step-by-step explanation:

If a point on a line is the midpoint, that means that the two segments created by the point are equal. In this case, XA = AY

We can set the two lengths equal to each-other.

3x = 5x - 12\\3x + 12 = 5x -12 + 12\\3x+12 = 5x\\2x = 12\\x =6

Now that we know x = 6, we can solve for the lengths of each segment.

XA = 3x = 3(6) = 18

AY = 5x - 12 = 5(6) - 12 = 30 -12 = 18

XY = 3x + 5x - 12 = 8x - 12 = 8(6) - 12 = 48 - 12 = 36

Cows and horses cost $250 each and sheep and goats each cost $200 at the county fair. Chickens sell for $50. How much could McDo
IgorC [24]

Answer:

the total amount of animals in McDonald's farm is missing, so I looked for a similar question and found the attached image:

McDonald can earn:

15 cows x $250 = $3,750

2 horses x $250 = $500

20 sheep x $200 = $4,000

25 goats x $200 = $5,000

17 chickens x $50 = $850

total = $14,100

I need help solving this question with explaining please <br> ANSWER ASAP!!!!!!!!!

x = 85 degrees and

y = 45 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The angle for a straight line is 180°. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°. These two statements are required to solve this problem.

The angles of x° and 95° are on a single straight line.

So x^{\circ} + 95^{\circ} = 180^{\circ}.

x^{\circ} = 180^{\circ} - 95^{\circ} = 85^{\circ} .

So the angle of x is 85°.

Step 2:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.

So 50^{\circ} + x^{\circ} + y^{\circ} =180^{\circ}.

50^{\circ} + 85^{\circ} + y^{\circ} =180^{\circ}.

y^{\circ} =180^{\circ} - 135^{\circ}, y = 45 ^{\circ}.

So the angle of y is 45°.
