If we assume that Jane spent $ x on the black pack 
Then the cost of the book is $ 20 less that twice the cos of the black pack,
Then twice the cost of black pack is 2x, then less $ 20 we get  2x-20
 Hence , 60 =2x-20
           solving for x 
                   x = 40
Therefore, the cost of the black pack is $40.

What percent of 50 is 9?
d1i1m1o1n [39]
9 is 18% of 50. So, 50 percent also written as 50% means 50 out of 100 parts. Since there are exactly two 50s in 100, fifty percent is the same number as one half. 50 percent=0.5 in but as a fraction, its 1/2.

Need some help please would really be greatful
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

x = 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually the drawing is very inaccurate, so it is a regular pentagon, otherwise x would be 60° and none of the answers would fit.

The formula for finding the sum of all angles in a polygon is:

(n-2) * 180°

n is the number of sides

Here n = 5, so the sum of all angles is (5-2) * 180° = 540°

x + 2x + 86 + 92 + 62 = 540

3x = 300

x = 100
