Here we have 2 variables we need to calculate:
x - how many Volvos Jane sold
y - how many Volvos Melissa sold
We write system of equations:
x = 8*y
x - y = 35
------------
8y - y = 35
7y = 35
y = 5
x = 8*5 = 40
Jane sold 40 cars.
Answer:
b = 17
∠QPS = 124°
∠SPT = 17°
∠TPR = 39°
Step-by-step explanation:
- The sum of the three angles shown is a linear angle, with a measure of 180°.
This fact can be used to write an equation:
(8b -12)° +b° +(2b+5)° = 180°
11b -7 = 180
11b = 187
b = 17
8b -12 = 8(17) -12 = 124
2b +5 = 2(17) +5 = 39
The value of b is 17.
The angle measures are ...
∠QPS = 124°
∠SPT = 17°
∠TPR = 39°
