Answer:
x = 32, y = 51
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are congruent then corresponding sides and angles are congruent, that is
∠ U = ∠ N
∠ N = 180° - (142 + 24)° = 180° - 166° = 14° , then
2x - 50 = 14 ( add 50 to both sides )
2x = 64 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 32
and
NP = US
2x - y = 13
2(32) - y = 13
64 - y = 13 ( subtract 64 from both sides )
- y = - 51 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
y = 51
18+2.50=20.50 so tax is 10% so you can put that into a calculator as 20.50*0.10 which equals 2.05 so just add 20.50 and 2.05 which is 22.55 is your final answer
So they had 17 left over and one Apple was cut into 8 slices. 8 goes into 17 2 times with one left over. So it would be 2 whole apples with 1 slice left over. So 17 slices converts to 2 wholes and 1 part (slice)
