n → smaller

20 - n → larger

4 (20 - n) = 5n - 1

80 - 4n = 5n - 1

81 = 9n

n = 9

20 - n = 11

Therefore, the numbers are 9 and 11.

Your larger number is 11 and your smaller one is 9. You solve this by first dividing 20 in half. Then you make one larger than the other by subtracting 1 from one 10 and adding adding that subtracted 1 to the other 10. Then you multiply 11 by 4 (11×4) and get 44 then multiply 9 by 5 (9×5) and get 45. Then subtract 44 from 45 (45-44) and the difference is 1.

Tracy McKinney is a disc jockey at radio station WMMM. Her annual salary is $52,750. What is her monthly salary?
attashe74 [19]
Okay, so since her annual salary is <span>$52,750 (the amount she gets a year, all twelve months combined) you're trying to find how much she gets monthly. That would mean we would have to divide her annual salary by 12 to find her monthly salary.

</span>$52,750 ÷ 12 = 4,395.8333333333333
<span>
And since that's a (bothersome) repeating decimal, we're going to have to round it. Once rounded, you would get $</span>4,395.83. That is her monthly salary.

WINSTONCH [101]

hi this is my first answer

a straight angle has 180°,

here your given angle is 60+60=120°

so your missing angle is 180-120=60°
