Answer:

The number of flower pots that were sold is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of flower pots that the store owner bought and sold.

A store owner bought some flower pots for $1,200. Therefore, the cost price for each flower pot would be

1200/x

The flower pots were sold for $2,700, with a profit of $30 per pot. The means that the selling price of each flower pot would be

2700/x

Profit = selling price - cost price

Therefore

2700/x - 1200/x = 30

Multiplying both sides of the equation by x, it becomes

2700 - 1200 = 30x

30x = 1500

x = 1500/30 = 50

Answer:

angles 3 and 4 both equal a 90 degree angle or bisect a 90 degree angle.

angle 5 is 44-degrees because it is complementary or vertical to the 44 degree angle.

x=32 because it is on the same line as the 44-degree angle and a line is 180 so 180-44=136 and to get the rest of x you would do the equation backwards so 136 divided by 4 is 34 and 36-2=32

angle a is 136 described above.

angle b, because it is on the same line as the 46 degree angle is 180-46=134

now im pooped :(
