Answer:

Small candies =9

Extra large candies =12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let small candies =x

Extra large candies =y

the number of candies is at least 20.

x+y\geq20

Cost of 1 small candy =\$4

Cost of 1 extra large candy =\$12

but she has only \$180 to spend

4x+12y\leq180

Solve for

x+y=20.......(1)\\4x+12y=180.....(2)\\eqn(2)-eqn(1)\times4\\8y=100\\y=\frac{100}{8} \\y=\frac{25}{8} \\from\ eqn(1)\\x+\frac{25}{2}=20\\ x=20-\frac{25}{2} \\x=\frac{15}{2}

Since number of candies should be integer.

let x=7,y=13

total spend 4\times7+12\times13=184 which is more than \$180, so this combination is not possible.

let\ x=8,y=12\\8\times4+12\times12=176

She has \$4 more so she can buy 1 more small candy.

Hence  small candy =9

extra large candy =12

Answer:

m∠5 = 44°; m∠7 = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 4 and 1 are supplementary (they make up a line) and their sum is equal to 180 degrees.

Subtracting the measure of angle 4 from 180 degrees gives the measure of angle 1. (180 - 136 = 44).

So Angle 1's measure is 44 degrees.

According to the Corresponding Angle Postulate, Angle 1 and Angle 5 are congruent. Therefore, m∠5 = 44°

According to the Vertical Angles Postulate (if two angles are vertical, they are congruent), ∠5 ≅ ∠7, meaning that m∠5 = m∠7.

So m∠7 = 44°
