The currently rented double-occupancy apartments are 38 apartments.

Step-by-step explanation:

An apartment has rented x apartments with two occupants and 16 apartments with one occupant and the total occupants were 92, these can be written in the equation as

2x+16=92

To find the number of double occupancy apartments that are rented, we need to solve the equation and find the value of x.

2x+16=92

Subtracting 16 from both sides of the equation,

\begin{aligned}&2 x=92-16\\&2 x=76\end{aligned}

Dividing both sides by 2, we get,

\begin{aligned}\frac{2 x}{2} &=\frac{76}{2} \\x &=38\end{aligned}

Thus, there are 38 double-occupancy apartments are currently rented.

Help how do you do this help fast please
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

x= 50°

Hope it helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is always 360°

So, x+40+x+20+2x+2x = 360

6x + 60= 360

6x = 360-60 = 300

6x= 300

x= 300/6

= 50
