Remark

Drawing that diagram was a very good idea. If you can picture something happening, you are half way there. I tend to use a table, but the diagram will come to the same thing.

                  Olivia                    Dawn

Start            176                         80

<u>Donate         x                             x      Subtract</u>

What's left   176 - x                  80 - x

Equation

176 - x = 5*(80 - x)     Olivia had 5 times as many books as Dawn did.   Remove the brackets.      

Solution

176 - x = 400 - 5x                 Add 5x to both sides

176 + 5x - x = 400                  Combine terms on the left

176 + 4x = 400                    Subtract 176 from both sides

4x = 400 - 176                     Combine terms on the right.

4x = 224                              Divide by 4

x = 224/4    

x = 56                                 Answer

A survey showed that 30% of students bring their lunch to school. The survey polled 300 students. How many of the 300 students d
Karolina [17]

Let's first find how many students bring their lunch to school. This is 30% of 300. To find this value, convert the percentage to a fraction (or decimal) and multiply:

30\% \,\, \textrm{of} \,\,300 = \dfrac{3}{10} \cdot 300 = \dfrac{900}{10} = 90


Since 90 students bring their lunch to school, we can say 210 students do not bring their lunch to school. (300 - 90 = 210)

angle and angle b are complentary angles. if angle a = (2x-5) and m angle b = (5x+4) then find the measure of angle a
iris [78.8K]

complementary angles = 90

2x-5 + 5x+4 = 90

combine like terms

7x-1 =90

7x = 91

divide by 7

x =13

angle a

2x-5

2*13-5

26-5
