Answer:
m = -18
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Combine like terms</u>
-8 = -m + 2m + 10
-8 = m + 10
<u>Step 2: Subtract 10 from both sides</u>
-8 - 10 = m + 10 - 10
-18 = m
Answer: m = -18
X: liters of 15% orange juice
y: liters of 10% orange juice
x+y=5L
y=5L - x
x liters of 15% orange juice plus y liters of 10% orange juice makes 5 liters of 12% orange juice in equation form:
0.15x+0.10y = 0.12(5L)
0.15x+0.10(5L-x)=0.12(5L)
0.15x+0.5-0.10x=0.6
0.05x=0.1L
x=2L
so y = 3L
so you need 2 liters of 15% orange juice and 3 liters of 10% orange juice

Answer:
B. 50
Step-by-step explanation:
The alternate interior angles at transversal t across parallel lines AB and CD will be congruent.
2x +40 = x +90
x = 50 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract x+40
The value of x is 50.
_____
<em>Check</em>
2x+40 = 2×50 +40 = 140
x+90 = 50 +90 = 140 . . . . so the obtuse angles are congruent, as they should be
___
<em>Additional comment</em>
The lines AB and CD are not shown as being parallel. We have to assume they are, or we cannot work the problem.
