Ralph is 3 years old

Casey is 18 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Ralph be x

Then Casey is 6 times as old as Ralph will be 6x

In two years

Ralph =x+2

Casey=6x+2 ⇒ 4(x+2)

Equate the two equations for Casey as

6x+2 = 4x+8

6x-4x=8-2

2x=6

x=6/2= 3

Current age;

Ralph= x= 3 years old

Casey=6x = 6*3= 18 years

Answer: 139°

Reasoning:

Angle 3 and 5 are congruent, so you can put their expressions equal to each other and solve.

14x-1=9x+14

To isolate the x to one side, subtract the 9x from the 14x.

5x-1=14

Now to get the constants on one side, add the 1 to the 14.

5x=15

Now divide both sides by 5 to isolate the x.

5x/5=15/5

x=3

Now that we know that, we can figure out angle 3.

9(3)+14

27+14= 41

Angle 3 = 41°

Now that we know what angle 3 is, we can subtract it from 180° to figure out angle 8 since angle 3 and 8 are supplemtary angles, aka linear pairs.

180°- 41°= 139°

<h3>Double checking your answer:</h3>

41°+139°=180°

Help I don't know what to choose
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know a triangle adds up to 180 so:

75+36+ ? = 180

111+ ? =180

? = 69

To find out x, we know that a straight line adds up to 180 so again:

x +69 = 180

x = 111

A bracelet costs $39.59 including tax.It is marked down 25 percent.What is the final price of the bracelet after it is marked do
lara31 [8.8K]
If it is marked down 25% and 25% equals 25/100 then you simply take 39.59 x 25/100

39.59 x 25/100 = 9.90

and then you subtract that from the original price 

39.59 - 9.90 = $29.69

after it is marked down, the price is $29.69
