Line CA is a straight line, meaning it adds up to 180°
Line BE splits the line into two supplementary angles, because when the two angles are added together they will equal 180°
Using the rule of supplementary angles, we can then make the equation 3x + 8x + 15 = 180
Now, simplify the equation by combining like terms
11x + 15 = 180
To solve, isolate x
11x + 15 = 180
11x = 165
x = 15
Answer:
mary=10 jack=15
Step-by-step explanation:
After 4 years Mary (x+4), Jack's age (x+5) + 4.
sum of the ages after 4 years :(x+4) + (x+5) +4=33
Simplifying the equation:
2x+13 = 33 ----->> 2x=20----->>>>x = 10 Mary's age
10 + 5 = 15 which is Jack's age.
Answer:
300 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
60% of 500
(60/100) * 500 = 300
Answer:45 * t = 2.5 * (1-t)...the equation will have one solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case, the first thing you should know is:
d: v * t
Where,
d: distance
v: speed
t: time
To go to school by bus we have:
d = 45 * t
To return from school we have:
d = 2.5 * (1-t)
how the distance is the same:45 * t = 2.5 * (1-t)
