<h3>Answer:  73</h3>

==================================================

Work Shown:

Check out the diagram below. Note the pair of alternate interior angles that are congruent (each 37 degrees). Then focus on triangle ABC. With the reference angle being at A, this means we use the tangent function because BC = x is the opposite side and AB = 97 is the adjacent side.

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(A) = BC/AB

tan(37) = x/97

97*tan(37) = x

x = 97*tan(37)

x = 73.094742859971

For the last step, you'll need a calculator that can handle trig functions. Make sure the calculator is in degree mode. The result here is approximate. This rounds to 73 when rounding to the nearest whole number.

How to solve it to put 65% of his Christmas money in the bank.If he had $70 left after he put the money in the bank. How much mo
kow [346]

Answer:

$200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the amount of Christmas money he had at the beginning.

He put 65% of X in the bank. This is 0.65x

He has $70 left which is equal to 0.35x

We need to write an equation to find the value of x.

70 = 0.35x

Divide by 0.35 to find the value of x.

70/0.35 = 0.35x/0.35

200 = x

He received $200 for Christmas.
