Answer:
Picture #1: x=16 ; y=10
Picture #2: x=21 ; y=15
Picture #3: x=18
Step-by-step explanation:
Picture #1:
(8x-14)* and (5x+34)* are Alternate Exterior Angle so they are congruent. And (8x-14)* and (5y+16)* are supplementary so they equal 180*.
Picture #2:
(6x+7)* and (3x-16)* are supplementary so they equal 180*. And (6x+7)* and (11y-32)* are Vertical Angles so they are congruent.
Picture #3:
(7x-6)* and (4x-7)* are supplementary so they equal 180*.
There would be enough room because if you do 60 times .375 (3 over 8) it would equal out to 22.5
600000 is 1/10 of "x", that means x = 10/10 or a whole, what is "x"?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the upper triangle has a right angle at Island C, we need only use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x:
(10 mi)^2 + (20 mi)^2 = x^2, so that
x^2 = 100 mi^2 + 400 mi^2 = 500 mi^2, which reduces to
x = +10√5 mi
Note that the shortest side (10 mi) is adjacent to a 30 degree angle. Thus, the upper triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle, meaning that the Pythagorean Theorem DOES apply here.

The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
