To start to figure this problem out, we can first figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister.
50 - 40 = 10, so you read 10 more pages in 1 hour.
Now we have to figure out how much more you would read in 1/2 an hour. Since 1/2 an hour is 1/2 of an hour, we can divide 10 by 2 to figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister. 10 divided by 2 is 5, so you read 5 more pages every half hour.
Answer:
The measure of angle ABT is 28°
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise the bisector of a angle
- If a ray bisects and angle that mean the ray divide the angle into
two equal parts in measure
- Ex: if the ray BD bisects angle ABC, then the measure of angle ABD is
equal to the measure of angle CBD
* Lets solve the problem
∵ BT bisects ∠ABC
∴ m∠ABT = m∠CBT
∵ m∠ABT = 4x - 16
∵ m∠CBT = 2x + 6
- Equate the two values
∴ 4x - 16 = 2x + 6
- Lets solve the equation by subtracting 2x from both sides and
adding 16 to both sides
∴ 4x - 2x = 6 + 16
∴ 2x = 22 ⇒ divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 11
- Lets find the measure of angle ABT
∵ m∠ABT = 4x - 16
- Substitute x by 11
∴ m∠ABT = 4(11) - 16 = 44 - 16 = 28°
* The measure of angle ABT is 28°
