Answer:
x =42.5
x+8 =50.5
3x+2 = 129.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles shown are supplementary, so they add to 180
x+8 + 3x+2 = 180
Combine like terms
4x+10 = 180
Subtract 10
4x = 170
Divide by 4
x =42.5
x+8 = 42.5+8 = 50.5
3x+2 = 3*42.5 +2 = 127.5 +2 = 129.5
Answer:
a. 30
b.Random Students
c.Unbiased
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim is 19
let fathers age be x then mothers age = x - 5 and Jim's age is
(x - 5)
Total their ages and equate to 100
x + x - 5 +
(x - 5 ) = 100
multiply through by 2 to eliminate the fraction
2x + 2x - 10 + x - 5 = 200
5x - 15 = 200 ( add 15 to both sides )
5x = 215 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 43
father is 43 years, mother is 38 and Jim is 19
