Answer:
Mary- $18
Jane- $30
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the numbers in the ratio together to get 8, and multiply 8 by the variable of x. Divide the total amount of money that both girls earned by 8. You will get x=6. Multiply 6 by 3 to get the amount of money Mary earned, which is 18, and multiply 6 by 5 to get the amount of money Jane earned, which is 30.
x(3+5) = $48
3x + 5x = $48
8x = $48
8x/8 = $48/8
x = $6
3($6):5($6) = $18:$30
725 is equal to (number of rows)*(number of seats per row)
r = s-4
725 = (s-4)s
s^2-4s-725 = 0
Factoring: (s-29)(s+25) = 0
Thus there are 29 seats per row, and 25 rows.
Answer:
x = 48
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.
156° is an exterior angle of the triangle, then
108 + x = 156 ( subtract 108 from both sides )
x = 48
