Answer:

d * 0.20 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the total cost of the DVD's we first need to change the percentage of the discount that Miguel's manager is giving him into decimal format by dividing the percentage by 100 like so...

20 / 100 = 0.20

Now that we have the decimal value we can multiply it by the actual cost of the DVDss to find the total cost before taxes. Since we do not have the actual DVD cost we would make the following equation where x is the final total cost and d is the initial cost of the DVDs.

d * 0.20 = x

Answer:

<em>Measure of angle B: 76°</em>

<em>Measure of angle C: 76°</em>

<em>Measure of angle A: 28°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Let's call

x = measure of angle B

Since angle B is congruent with angle C:

x = measure of angle C

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

180 - x - x = 180 - 2x = measure of angle A

It's given the measure of angle B is 20 more than twice the measure of angle A, thus:

x = 20 + 2(180 - 2x)

Operating the parentheses:

x = 20 + 360 - 4x

Adding 4x:

5x = 380

Dividing by 5:

x = 380/5

x = 76°

Measure of angle B: 76°

Measure of angle C: 76°

Measure of angle A: 180 - 2*76°= 28°

Dominik [7]

Answer:

120 ml oil

150g onions

1.2 kg potatoes

1.5 litres milk

Step-by-step explanation:

The revipe serves 4 people, but Richard wants to serve 12 people. This is 3x the number of people intended.

So, multiply all the fiven ingredients by 3 as well.

Oil = 40ml x 3 = 120ml

Onions = 50g x 3 = 150g

Potatoes = 400g x 3 = 1200g = 1.2 kg

Milk = 500ml x 3 = 1500ml = 1.5 litres

Hope this helps
