Given:
The figure of two parallel lines MP and QS.
A transversal line KL interests the two parallel lines.
To find:
The 
.
Solution:
If a transversal line intersect the two parallel lines, then the corresponding angles are congruent and their measures are equal.
In the given figure 
and 
corresponding angles. It means their measures are equal.
Therefore, .
Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side you do to the other.
Subtract 2y from both sides
2x + 2y (-2y) = 10 (-2y)
2x = 10 - 2y
Isolate the x, divide 2 from both sides and from all terms.
(2x)/2 = (10 - 2y)/2
x = 5 - y
Place the variable in the front
x = -y + 5
x = -y + 5 is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
2.4x - 4.4
Step-by-step explanation:
0.3(4x – 8) – 0.5(–2.4x + 4)
1.2x - 2.4 + 1.2x -2
2.4x - 4.4
Answer:
755 or more
Step-by-step explanation:
The profit is the difference between revenue and costs. We want the profit to be $2000 or more, and we have both fixed and variable costs.
Let x represent the number of puppets sold. Then the costs are ...
... 76.25 + 2.25x
The revenue is 5x.
The above-described relationship can then be written as
... 5x -(76.25 +2.25x) ≥ 2000
... 2.75x ≥ 2076.25 . . . . . add 76.25, collect terms
... x ≥ 2076.25/2.75 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
... x ≥ 755
755 or more puppets must be sold to earn $2000 or more.
let's say the bill without the tip is "x" amount, so that'd be the 100% of the bill, but we also know that 4.50 is the 18% of "x".
so if 4.50 is the 18% of "x", how much is "x"?
