Answer:

Option C) 27 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of people

we know that

The cost of decorations ($35) plus the number of people (x) multiplied by the cost per person on food ($8.50) must be equal to $264.50

The linear equation that represent this situation is

$35+8.50x=264.50$

solve for x

Subtract 35 both sides

$8.50x=264.50-35$

$8.50x=229.50$

Divide by 8.50 both sides

$x=229.50/8.50$

$x=27\ people$

31 and 81 are in the bottom corners of the triangle X is at the top . What is X?

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The top angle of the triangle is, X = 68°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there is a triangle named PQR with bottom corner angles ∠ P and ∠ Q and the ∠ R is the angle at the top.

Now, given that ∠ P = 31° and ∠ Q = 81° and we have to find out ∠ R i.e. X.

In Δ PQR, we know, ∠ P + ∠ Q + ∠ R = 180°

⇒ 31° + 81° + X = 180°

⇒ X = 68°

Therefore, the top angle of the triangle is 68°. (Answer)
