What you want to do is cross multiply so you get 5(x+4)=7(3x+28) then you distrubute the 5 and then you distribute the 5 and the 7 to the number in the parentheses 5x+20=21x+196
subtract 5x on both sides to get 20=16x+196 then you subtract 196 on both sides to get -176=16x last what you want to do is divide 16 on both sides to get x=-11

Jill, an employee at Old Navy, budgets 18 of her yearly salary for clothing. Jill's total clothing bill for the year is $8,180.
Triss [41]

Answer: $ 45,444.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Jill budgets 18% of her yearly salary for clothing.

His total clothing bill for the year is $8,180.

Let x=  her yearly salary

Then according to the question , we have

18% of x = 8180

Convert 18% into decimal by dividing it by 100 , we get

0.18 x= 8180

Multiply both sides by 100

⇒ 18x = 818000

Divide both sides by 18 , we get

x= 45444.44

Hence, her yearly salary = $ 45,444.44

If PQ bisects Angle RPS and measure of angle RPS = 120°, find p and measure of angle RPQ.
Ghella [55]

Answer:

p = 6; RPQ = 60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Because RPS is 120 degrees and it is bisected by PQ (cut into 2 equal parts), we can determine that both sides are 60 degrees. Set the expression 5p+30 equal to 60 to find the value of p.

5p + 30 = 60

5p = 30

p = 6

So now you have determined that p = 6, and the measure of RPQ is 60 degrees.

Hope this helped!
