complementary angles = 90

2x-5 + 5x+4 = 90

combine like terms

7x-1 =90

7x = 91

divide by 7

x =13

angle a

2x-5

2*13-5

26-5

Angle a: 21

Suppose that a certain movie earns $3,000,000 in ticket sales. If 60% goes to the movie and 40% goes to theatres: Movie studios

miskamm [114]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount earned by movie = $3,000,000.

Percentage that went to movie = 60%

Percentage that went to theater = 40%

Revenue gotten by movie studio = 60% × $3,000,000

= 0.6 × $3,000,000

= $1,800,000

Revenue gotten by theaters = 40% × $3,000,000

= 0.4 × $3,000,000

= $1,200,000

If the pattern continues how many cups of milk does George need to make 6 batches of muffins

alexdok [17]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider the differences between consecutive terms, that is

$\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{3}{8}$ = $\frac{3}{8}$

1 $\frac{1}{8}$ - $\frac{3}{4}$ = $\frac{3}{8}$

1 $\frac{1}{2}$ - 1 $\frac{1}{8}$ = $\frac{3}{8}$

To obtain the next term in the pattern add $\frac{3}{8}$ to the previous term.

batches = 5 ⇒ milk = 1 $\frac{1}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{8}$ = 1 $\frac{7}{8}$

batches = 6 ⇒ milk = 1 $\frac{7}{8}$ + $\frac{3}{8}$ = 2 $\frac{1}{4}$
