<h2>○=> <u>Correct option</u> :</h2>

\color{plum}\tt\bold{(D)  \: 17}

<h3>○=> <u>Steps to derive correct answer</u> :</h3>

Given :

▪︎Angle (5x)° and angle 95° are supplementary angles.

Which means :

= \tt5x + 95 = 180

= \tt5x = 180 - 95

= \tt5x  = 85

\hookrightarrow\tt \color{plum}x  = 17

Thus, the value of x = 17

Let us check whether or not we have found out the correct value of x by placing 17 in the place of x:

=\tt5 \times 17 + 95 = 180

=\tt 85 + 95 = 180

=\tt 180 = 180

Since the sum of both angles is equivalent to 180[85+95=180], we can conclude that we have found out the correct value of x.

Therefore, the correct option is (D) 17

Five years ago I was 5 times older than my son. In 8 years’ time I will be 3 times older than my son. How old am I today?
o-na [289]

Let x = Parent's age now  y = son's age now

Then, x-5 = parent's age five years ago

        y-5 = son's age five years ago

     So, x-5 = 5(y-5)

          Simplify to get x - 5y = -20

Parent's age 8 years from now = x+8

Son's age 8 years from now = y+8

    So, x+8 = 3(y+8)

           Simplifying, we have x - 3y = 16

We have the system of equations:  x - 5y = -20

                                                  x - 3y = 16

Subtract the equations to obtain -2y = -36

                                                  y = 18

                                                  x = 70

Parent is 70 years old and the son is 18 years old.

What is the number of times a base is multiplied by its self indicated by an exponent
lozanna [386]

The question is worded a bit strangely (in my opinion anyway), but I think your teacher wants you to describe how exponents work.

Let's say we had the expression 5^3

The base is 5 as its the bottom most value (think of something like the base of a tree or building). The exponent is 3.

The exponent of 3 tells the reader to multiply the base 5 by itself 3 times like so

5^3 = 5*5*5 = 125

With larger exponents, it becomes more tedious to write out all the repeated multiplications, which is why many calculators have an exponent button to save time.
