Answer:
x = 17°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Angles And Parallel Lines </u>
If two parallel lines are crossed by a third line, corresponding angles are congruent. Also, consecutive angles are supplementary
We can clearly see in the image provided, being w and b parallel, that the corresponding angles (4x-3) and 65° are congruent. We can express that relation as
Operating
So the value of the angle x is 17°
so we know she has sculptures and paintings, if she sold twice as many paintings as sculptures, that means that for every 2 paintings, she sold 1 sculpture, so the paintings and sculptures are on a 2:1 ratio.
we know she sold a total of 57, so we'll need to split 57 in a 2:1 ratio, we'll simply divide the whole amount of 57 by (2+1) and distribute accordingly.
