Answer:
u = 40° , v = 40° and x = 100°
Step-by-step explanation:
i) from the rule of triangle we know that the sum of all three angles = 180°
ii) 100° + 40° + y = 180°. Therefore y = 40°. where y is the angle adjacent to v.
iii) from theorem on parallel lines we can say that u = y =40°
iv) from the properties of parallel lines we get v = 40° as interior alternate angles are equal.
v) again from the properties of parallel lines we get u = 40°
vi) using the triangle property as in i) we can see that u + v + x =180° therefore 40° + 40° + x = 180°. Therefore x = 100°.
vii) Therefore u = 40° , v = 40° and x = 100°
<span>so here is how you can answer this:
Your commission must be equal to the sum of the 10% of the value of the rug and the 15% of the value of the furniture and equate this to the value of your commission. Translate this to a mathematical equation, you would get,
Commission = (10%) (value of rugs) + (15%) (value of furniture).
substituting the known values,
5000 =.1 * x + .15 * 12500.
Now it's a matter of finding for x. You should get,
x = $31,250.</span>
