$\angle TUV=2\angle VUW$

Now we can rewrite the equation so:

$\angle VUW=\frac{1}{2}\angle TUV$

A taxi company charges passengers $2.00 for a ride, no matter how long the ride is, and an additional $0.20 for each mile travel

tiny-mole [99]

The answer will be $2.20. Because they only traveled one mile, which is 20 cents. Also the original cost before they even started driving was $2.00.

Find three consecutive odd integers such that 5 times the sum of all three is 42 more than the product of the first and second i

maxonik [38]

The three integers are x, x+2, x+4

5(3x+6)=42+x(x+2)
15x+30=x^2+2x+42
x^2 - 13x +12=0
(x-12)(x-1) = 0
x = 12 or 1
since the integers have to be odd we exclude 12

integers are 1,3,5
