Answer: x = 10 and y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Due to the x rule, (5x - 17) = (3x + 3)
If we add 17 to both sides:
5x = 3x + 20
Take away 3x from both sides
2x = 20
Divide by 2:
X = 10
This means that (5x - 17) = (3x + 3) = 33
Since all angles must add to 360, the top angle = (360- (33*2)) /2
(360-66) /2
294 /2
147
This shows that 9x - 19y = 147
90 - 19y = 147
Minus 90 both sides
19y = 57
Y = 3
So, x = 10 and y = 3
The answer to that would be 3/8
Answer: 7 pies
Step-by-step explanation: Since the club split the pies into 5 pieces and then had a total of 45 slices, you would first divide 45 by 5 and you would get 9. The question stated that the cafeteria gave 2 pies and they are asking how much the club made. So you would subtract 9 by 2 to get 7. This concludes to that the club made 7 pies in total. Hope that helps!
