For starters, create an equation to show David's earnings. We can do this using Danielle's as a basis, which is set up as y=(# of hours)x+(bonus). This gives us y=12x+80. Now, as we need both their ys to be equal, we just set both equations equal to each other, making 15x+50=12x+80. Now, we solve for x, starting with 15x+50=12x+80, subtracting 12x from both sides to get 3x+50=80, subtracting 50 from both sides to get 3x=30, and dividing three from both sides to get x=10. To check, we just plug in our answer to both equations and see if the ys match up. With Danielle's equation, we get y=15(10)+50=150+50=200 and with David's equation, we get y=12(10)+80=120+80=200, proving that our answer is correct.
Six hundred seven and four hundred nine one-thousandths.
I’m guessing you mean like this.
2x+4y+5x+8y.
2x and 5x are like terms because the x’s are alike. If you add 2+5, the answer is 7. So therefore 2x+5x=7x.
4y and 8y are like terms because the y’s are alike. So the answer to 4y+8y would be 12y.
If you need extra help, give me a problem and I will help you solve it.

Answer:
48°
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔACB is isosceles, so angles A and B have the same measure. The measure of angle C in that triangle is ...
∠C = 180° -2(69°) = 42°
Angle C in ΔCDE has the same measure. Angle D is the complement of that:
∠D = 90° -42° = 48°
_____
The relations we used are ...
- the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°
- base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent
- vertical angles are congruent
- acute angles in a right triangle are complementary
