Mathematics

Answer:

The values of x and y are x = 3 and y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The isosceles triangle has two equal sides in length, and its base angles are equal in measures

In ΔJKL

∵ ΔJKL is an isosceles triangle with vertex K

→ That means the equal sides are JK and KL

∴ JK = KL

∵ JK = 8x and KL = 13x - 15

→ Equate them

∴ 13x - 15 = 8x

→ Add 15 to both sides

∵ 13x - 15 + 15 = 8x + 15

∴ 13x = 8x + 15

→ Subtract 8x from both sides

∵ 13x - 8x = 8x - 8x + 15

∴ 5x = 15

→ Divide both sides by 5 to find x

∴ x = 3

∵ K is the vertex of the ΔJKL

∴ ∠KJL and ∠KLJ are the base angles

∵ The base angles are equal in measures

∴ m∠KJL = m∠KLJ

∵ m∠KJL = 5y - 3

∴ m∠KLJ = 5y - 3

∵ The sum of the measures of the angles of a Δ is 180°

∴ m∠KJL + m∠KLJ + m∠JKL = 180°

∵ m∠JKL = 76°

→ Substitute the measures of the 3 angles in the equation

∴ 5y - 3 + 5y - 3 + 76 = 180

→ Add the like terms on the left side

∵ (5y + 5y) + (76 - 3 - 3) = 180

∴10y + 70 =180

→ Subtract 70 from both sides

∵ 10y + 70 - 70 = 180 - 70

∴ 10y = 110

→ Divide both sides by 10 to find y

∴ y = 11

∴ The values of x and y are x = 3 and y = 11

Sales fall from 300 per week to 270 per week what’s the percentage change
weeeeeb [17]
Hi there! 

Your question: 

Sales fall from 300 per week to 270 per week what's the percentage change?

My answer:

The formula for calculating percent change is as follows: 

[(y2 - y1)/y1]*100=your percent change 

y2= first value 
y1=second value 

Plug the numbers in: 

[(300-270)/300]*100

[30/300]*100

0.1*100

10 

Therefore, the percent change is 10%

Hope this helps! Let me know if it's incorrect so I can fix it:)
