Answer:

There are 75 pencils and 25 pens.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Tom has three times as many pencils than pens then,

Pencils = 3(Pens)

If there are a total of 100 writing utensils then,

Pencils + Pens = 100

Substitute the word "pencils" in this equation to 3(Pens),

3(Pens) + Pens = 100

Now remember there is almost a 'hidden' one beside the word "Pens" so,

3Pens + 1Pens = 100

Add the two together,

4Pens = 100

Divide,

Pens = 25

Substitute 25 into the first equation,

Pencils = 3(25)

Pencils = 75

Thus, there are 75 pencils and 25 pens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the measure of the vertex angle ∠ABD of an isosceles triangle

we know that

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles

In this problem

∠ABD=∠BAD= ----> the angles of the base are equals

Find the measure of the vertex angle

∠ABD= ------> the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is equal to

Step 2

Find the measure of the angle  ∠CBD in the equilateral triangle

we know that

A equilateral triangle has three  equal sides and three equal angles

The measure of the internal angle in a equilateral triangle is

so

∠CBD=

Step 3

Find the measure of the angle ∠ABC

∠ABC=∠ABD+∠DBC

substitute the values

∠ABC=

therefore

the answer is

the measure of the angle ∠ABC is
