If your team consisted of only you, your sister, and your mother, then your mother would have lost 17 pounds, and your sister would have lost 18 pounds.
Answer:
x = 4, ∠I = 33°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Question 1</u>
Converse to Base Angles Theorem: 28 = 9x - 8,
28 = 9x - 8 (add 8 to both sides)
9x = 36 (divide both sides by 9)
x = 4
<u>Question 2</u>
Since the triangles are congruent, ∠A ≅ ∠G:
∠A = 55 = ∠G
If we consider triangle ALX we have ∠L = 180-55-92 = 33°
And since ∠L ≅ ∠I, ∠I = 33° respectively
Answer: The equation is $29 + x*$4.50 = $42.50, and the solution is x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The data we have is:
Gonzales has $42.50
He wants to buy:
a shirt that costs $29
some bracelets that cost $4.50 each.
The equation that we need to solve is:
Total cost = money that Gonzales has.
The cost is $29 + x*$4.50
where x is the number of bracelets he can buy.
The equation that we need to solve is:
$29 + x*$4.50 = $42.50
to solve it we must isolate x:
x*$4.50 = $42.50 - $29 = $13.50
x = 13.50/4.50 = 3
So we have that Mr. Gonzales can buy a total of 3 bracelets.
