Answer B) is the correct answer
Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we can use the exterior angle theorem, which means the measure of an exterior angle is the sum of its remote interior angles. In this case, this would mean:
x + 72 = 5x
Since this gives us an equation, we can just solve for x:
x + 72 = 5x
72 = 4x
x = 18
Answer:
100 lightbulbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically find the percentage of lightbulbs that are bad. 5/136. So about 3. 6 percent. I'm going to use a more exact form of this percent for my calculations though. Now use the decimal for of this (0.036....) and multiply it by 2720. Using my exact decimal, the answer just so happened to be exactly 100. So there will be 100 defective lightbulbs per day. (Teachers are a stickler for units, so don't forget them if it's for a teacher)

Answer:
<em>Let the dryer cost x.</em>
<em>Then, the washer costs (x+87)</em>
<em> </em>
<em>Together, they cost (x) + (x+87) = 787</em>
<em> 2x+87 = 787</em>
<em> 2x = 700 [subtract 97 from both sides]</em>
<em> x = 350 [divide both sides by 2]</em>
<em> </em>
<em>The dryer cost $350.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>Check: The washer cost $437. Together, they cost $787 [good to check, right?]</em>
<em></em>
