The measurements of the box actually aren't needed since they already gave you the surface area. Just multiply the given surface area by the price of wrapping paper per square inch: 182.5 x $0.012 = $2.2224. If you round that answer, you'll know that it costs $2.22 to wrap the gift.
Do 500 divied by 4 and its 125 so 125 people have dogs.
To find the value of x, use the vertical angle theorem.
Vertical angles are congruent.
Thus we have:
6x - 10 = 5x + 1
Solve for x.
6x - 10 = 5x + 1
Add 10 to both sides:
6x - 10 + 10 = 5x + 1 + 10
6x = 5x + 11
Subtract 5x from both sides:
6x - 5x = 5x - 5x + 11
x = 11
To find the value of y, use corresponding angles thoerem.
When two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal, the angles in matching corners are correponding angles.
Corresponding angles are congruent.
Thus, we have:
y = 6x - 10
Substitiute x for 11:
y = 6(11) - 10
y = 66 - 10
y = 56°
ANSWER:
x = 11, y = 56°
