Answer: 17/24
Eplination: you need a common demonator
Check the picture below.
we know that the arcST is 30°, meaning the inscribed angle intercepting it will be half that or 15°.
in the triangle RWT, two sides of it are RT and RW, both of which are radius segments and thus equal, meaning that triangle RWT is an isosceles, and in an isosceles the twin sides also make twin angles, meaning that ∡RTW is a twin of the inscribed angle ∡RWT.
After understanding the problem, formulate equations to determine the unknown. Let x be the price of one book. Equating Alana&Petra's expense with Angus' would be
5x + 4x +5 = 19x - 10
The 5 in the left side is needed because Angus' expense is $5 more. Also, the 10 on the right side represents the $10 discount. Solving the equation,
19x = 9x = 5+10
10x = 15
x = $1.5
Therefore, the book costs $1.5.
Idk I'm learning that also
Here, 2x + 1 = 3x
3x - 2x = 1
x = 1
In short, Solution would be 1 only.
Hope this helps!
