The total amount is "x", so, if 22.8 is 58%, "x" is the 100%,

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
22.8&58\\
x&100
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{22.8}{x}=\cfrac{58}{100}\implies \cfrac{22.8\cdot 100}{58}=x$

Two angles are supplementary. The measure of the larger angle is 4 more than 3 times the measure of the smaller angle. Find the

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

<u>The smaller angle measures 44° and the larger measures 136°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let'e recall that supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180° degrees.

Smaller angle = x

Larger angle = 3x + 4

Therefore, we have:

x + 3x + 4 = 180

4x = 180 - 4

4x = 176

x = 176/4

x = 44 ⇒ 3x + 4 = 136

<u>The smaller angle measures 44° and the larger measures 136°</u>
