Step-by-step explanation:

m∠3+ m∠5 = 180° (co-int angles are supplementary)

5x+ 10 + 3x + 10 = 180° (co-int ∠'s, parallel lines)

8x + 20 = 180

8x = 160

x= 160/8

x= 20°

$C)\:\:\frac{\sqrt 2}{ 2 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin \bigg( \frac{3\pi}{4} \bigg) \\ \\ = \sin \bigg( \pi - \frac{\pi}{4} \bigg) \\ \\ = \sin \bigg(\frac{\pi}{4} \bigg) \\ \\ = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} }\\\\= \frac{\sqrt 2}{ 2 }$

Aaron is at a spot in his book where the page numbers of the two facing pages have a product of 1980 what are the two page numbe

Alona [7]

Basically you know that they are 2 consecutive numbers whose product is 1980.
n*(n+1)=1980 
n^2 + n - 1980 = 0 
(n -44)(n + 45)= 0 
n=44 
so the 2 page numbers is 44 and 45. 

The faster way is just to take the square root of 1980 and since that is 44.497 you can conclude that the 2 numbers is below and above it (44, 45)

What expression is equivalent to 2^6 times 2^-4/ 2^7

777dan777 [17]

I believe it is 4^-5
2^6 (2^-4/ 2^7)
=2^6(2^-4-+7)
=2^6(2^-11)
=4^6-11
=4^-5

In New York, state sales tax rates vary by county. In Allegany County, the sales tax rate is 8 1 2 %. a. A book costs $12.99, an

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

$ 2.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the sales tax rate $= 8\frac{1}{2}\%=8.5\%$

The cost of the book is $ 12.99.

So, the tax on the book= 8.5% of 12.99

$= \frac {8.5}{100}\times 12.99$

=1.10

So, the sales tax on the book is $ 1.10.

The cost of the video game is $ 39.99.

So, the tax on the book= 8.5% of 39.99

$= \frac {8.5}{100}\times 39.99$

=3.30

So, the sales tax on the book is $ 3.40.

The difference of taxes on both the items = $ 3.40-$ 1.10=$ 2.30

So, the tax on the video game is $ 2.30 more than then tax on the book.
