Answer: the total number of coupon books sold is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of coupon books that Mario sold.

Let y represent the number of coupon books that Luigi sold.

Apparently, Mario is a much better salesperson, because he sold 4 times as many coupon books as Luigi. This is expressed as

x = 4y

If Luigi sold 12 fewer coupon books than Mario, the expression would be

x = y + 12 - - - - - - - - - - -- -1

Substituting x = 4y into equation 1, it becomes

4y = y + 12

4y - y = 12

3y = 12

y = 12/3

y = 4

x = 4y = 4 × 4

x = 16

The total number of coupon books that the two boys sold is

4 + 16 = 20

How do you write an exact angle measure without approximating to a decimal value?
dimulka [17.4K]

an exact angle measure without approximating to a decimal value is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since an angle of 2 has degree measure 360° it follows that an angle of 1 radian has degree measure (180/ )°. Likewise, an angle of size 1° has radian measure /180. We now can easily obtain a formula to convert from degrees to radians and vice-versa. To convert from degrees to radians, multiply the angle by /180.

convert decimal degrees to DMS :

  • For the degrees use the whole number part of the decimal.
  • For the minutes multiply the remaining decimal by 60. Use the whole number part of the answer as minutes.
  • For the seconds multiply the new remaining decimal by 60.
