Answer:
x = 71
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 2 sides of the triangle are congruent then the triangle is isosceles.
Thus the 2 base angles are congruent
The sum of the 3 angles in the triangle = 180°, so
x =
=
= 71

Answer:
86 milkshakes and 63 ice cream were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of milkshake sold be x
Let the amount of ice cream sold be y
If she sold 149 milkshakes and ice cream cones then;
x+y = 149 ... 1
If the milkshakes sold for $4 and the ice cream cones for $3, with total amount #533 collected then;
4x + 3y = 533 ....2
Solve both equations simultaneously
x+y = 149 ... 1 * 4
4x + 3y = 533 ....2 * 1
________________________
4x+4y = 596
4x+3y = 533
Subtract
4y-3y = 596-533
y = 63
since x +y = 149
x+63 = 149
x = 149 - 63
x = 86
Hence 86 milkshakes and 63 ice cream were sold
