Answer:

he multiplied by 0.8 not .08

Step-by-step explanation:

when doing 8% you go back 2 places so 0.08

34×0.08= 2.72

34+2.72= 36.72

In the figure below, mZ1=(x +48) and m2 2=2xº.<br> Find the angle measures.
NARA [144]
Since m < 1 and m < 2 are complementary angles wherein the measure of their angles add up to 90°, we can establish the following equation:

m < 1 + m < 2 = 90°
x° + 48° + 2x° = 90°

Combine like terms:
48° + 3x° = 90°

Subtract 48° from both sides:

48° - 48° + 3x° = 90° - 48°

3x = 42°

Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x:

3x/3 = 42/3

x = 14°

Plug in the value of x into the equation to fins m< 1 and m < 2:

m < 1 + m < 2 = 90°
(14° + 48°) + 2(14)° = 90°
62° + 28° = 90°

90° = 90° (True statement)

Therefore:

m < 1 = 62°
m < 2 = 28°

225 g flour
Pachacha [2.7K]
If she needs to use 225g of flour for each cake and wants to make 18 cakes she will need 4050g (225x18=4050) of flour but she only has 360g which is obviously not enough flour. For one cake she needs 75g of sugar and since she needs to make 18 cakes she needs 1350g (75x18=1350) of sugar. She only has 135g so it’s not enough.
