Answer:

1295$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the monthly salary of Barry A.

Then we have:

A - (1/5)A - (1/7)A = 851

or

(35A - 7A - 5A)/35 = 851

or

23A = 851 x 35

or

23A = 19785

or

A = 1295$

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

check: 50+160+130+20 = 360

50:160 = 5 : 16

Step-by-step explanation:et the smaller of the unknown angles be 5x and the larger of the two be 16x

so 130+20+5x+16x = 360

21x = 210

x = 10

so the two missing angles are 50° and 160°

check: 50+160+130+20 = 360

50:160 = 5 : 16
