Answer:
<R = 158
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary angles equal 180 degrees.
<Q + <R =180
22 + <R = 180
Subtract 22 from each side
22-22 + <R = 180-22
R = 158
Answer:
balloons= 9
candles= 8
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of balloons be x
and candles be y
So
15x+8y=192----------1
x+y=17--------------2
from 2, x= 17-y
put x= 17-y in 1
15( 17-y)+8y=192
255-15y+8y=192
solve for y
-7y=192-255
-7y=-63
x=63/7
x=9
put x= 9 in 1
9+y=17
y= 17-9
y=8.
3/x=5/y multiply both sides by y
3y/x=5 divide both sides by 3
y/x=5/3
