Answer: x = 21°
Step-by-step explanation:
37 + 4x + (3x - 4) = 180° Original Equation
37 + 4x + 3x - 4 = 180° Commutative Property of Addition
7x + 33 = 180° Combine like terms
7x = 148° Subtract 33 from both sides
x = 21° Divide both sides by 7
Answer: $0.58
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent pencil and y represent eraser
10x + 7y = 4.23 → 1(10x + 7y = 4.23) → 10x + 7y = 4.23
3x + y = 0.95 → -3(3x + y = 0.95) → <u>-21x - 7y</u> =<u> -6.65 </u>
-11x = -2.42
<u>÷-11 </u> <u>÷-11 </u>
x = 0.22
3x + y = 0.95
3(0.22) + y = 0.95
0.66 + y = 0.95
y = 0.29
2y = 2(0.29) = 0.58
Keep note of these things before we start:
-Of is a keyword that tells us multiplication is being done
-x = total number of pages
-32% = 32/100 = .32
Okay, here we go:
32% of total number of pages = 80
.32 of x = 80
.32*x = 80
.32x = 80
.32x/.32 = 80/.32
x = 250
There are 250 pages in total in Katie's book.
To find out how many pages she has to read (y), subtract the pages read from the total:
TOTAL - PAGES READ = PAGES LEFT TO READ
250 - 80 = y
170 = y
Katie has 170 pages left to read
Hope this helps!
Add up all of the side lengths and you get 148.4 as the perimeter.
subtract that from 150 and you're left with 1.6 m left of tape
