<h3>Answer:  122 degrees</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

Angle BAC can be shortened to "angle A" since the letter A is in the middle.

Angle BCA can be shortened to "angle C" for similar reasoning.

We're told that angles A and C are base angles. For any isosceles triangle, the base angles are congruent

-----------

Let's use this fact to solve for x.

angle A = angle C

7x+1 = 5x+9

7x-5x = 9-1

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

Once we know what x is, we can find each base angle

  • angle A = 7x+1 = 7*4+1 = 28+1 = 29
  • angle C = 5x+9 = 5*4+9 = 20+9 = 29

Both angles A and C are 29 degrees each, so this confirms we have the correct x value.

-----------

The last step is to use the fact that all three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees. This will help us find angle B, which is the vertex angle.

A+B+C = 180

29+B+29 = 180

B+58 = 180

B = 180-58

B = 122

The vertex angle is 122 degrees.  

So we can say either angle B = 122, or we could say angle ABC = 122

"angle ABC" is the same as "angle CBA".

Answer:

-1 + 2 = 1

1 + (-2) = -1

-1 - 2 = -3

1 - (-2) = 3

Step-by-step explanation

When you subtract use keep change change

Rule 1 when you add : If the signs are the same add the numbers and take the sign of the bigger number.

Rule 2 when you add : If the signs are different subtract the numbers and take the sign of the bigger number.

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Unit Price =\$2.5 \:per\: gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

15 Gallon of Gas costs $37.50

To determine the Unit Price, we divide the Total Cost by the number of gallons of gas bought.

Unit Price

=\dfrac{\$37.50}{15gallons}\\Unit Price =\$2.5 \:per\: gallon
