Answer:
5 is the number
Step-by-step explanation:
5 twice is 10 and 9 less than 10 is 1 and 1 is less than 2
181 rounded to the nearest ten is the 200
Answer:
x = 16 and y = 121
Yes, its a long process.
Step-by-step explanation:
vertical angles are congruent given that: we do this
(4x-5)+(4x-5)+y+y=360
or
2(4x-5)+2y=360
divide both sides by 2
(4x-5)+y=180
distribute (there is an invisible 1 beside the parentheses of 4x-5)
4x-5+y=180
add 5 to both sides
4x+y = 185
subtract y from both sides
4x = 185-y
divide both sides by 4
x = (185-y)/4
note that (4x-5) is also EQUAL to (3x+11)
4x-5=3x+11
subtract 3x from both sides
x-5=11
add 5 to both sides
x = 16
Now that we know what x is, we can substitute it in the equation we got from 2(4x-5)+2y=360
Our equation was
x = (185-y)/4
16 = (185-y)/4
Multiply both sides by 4
64 = 185-y
Subtract 185 from both sides
-121=-y
multiply both sides by -1
121 = y
To simplify a ratio, first make into the fraction form. a:b =

Then find the prime factors of both the numerator and denominator.

Now cancel out any common factors. But if there isn't any common factors, then the fraction or ratio is in its simplest formula.
And that is the case here.
And because the question wants the answer in ratio form, make the fraction back into a ratio.
So, A. 15:37 is the answer.
