In the question it is given that,

The students at Midtown Middle school sold flowers as a fundraiser in September and October. In October, they charged $1.50 for each flower

And the October price was a 20% increase of the September price.

Let the price of the flower in October be $x

So we have

x+  \frac{20}{100}x = 1.50 \\ \frac{120x}{100} = 1.50 \\ x = \frac{1.50*100}{120} = 1.25

So the price of the flower in Septembet is $1.25 .

If the midpoint of two points is (2,5) and one of the endpoints is (6,3), what is the other endpoint?
aleksley [76]
To answer this question, you need to draw out the graph first. By doing so, you will be able to know where the other endpoint is located. (Fig. 1)

Next, count the number from the midpoint to the endpoint to determine the coordinates for the other endpoint. (Fig. 2)
Example: From (2, 5) to (6, 3)
x: 2 to 6 = 4 steps
y: 5 to 3 = 2 steps

From there, you can determine the other endpoint like this.
Example: From (2, 5) to the other endpoint
x: 2 to x1 = 4 steps
y: 5 to y1 = 2 steps

Therefore, x1 = -2 and y1 = 7
Other endpoint: (-2, 7)

Sorry for the messy drawing, it is hard to draw without a pen. Haha... hope this helps :)

Plz answer ASAP x=? thx
Temka [501]

X should equal 12.5

You have to split the isosceles acute triangle in the middle of the polygon down the middle, and find what the now right isosceles tringle is. Since we already know that there's a 50 degress and a 90 degress there all you have to do is add those two numbers together and subtract from 180. Thena after you've done that you just need to multiply 40 by 2 and bata bing, bata boom you have 80 degress as your top, you already have a 50 and the last one has to be 50. Divide 50 by 4 and you get 12.5

50+90=140

180-140=40

40 * 2 = 80

80 + 50 + x = 180

x= 50

4*x= 50

x=12.5
