Answer:20 years

Step-by-step explanation: Let your present age be 'x'

If you are 5percent holder then your age is 21

x +5/100×x =21

x+5x/100=21

100x+5x/100=21

105x/100=21

x=21×100÷105

x=20

Find the measure of an angle whose measure is 20° less than the measure of its supplement.
Tasya [4]
Supplementary = angles add up to 180
Measure = 20 less

Labelled as x + (x - 20) = 180

Solve.

x + (x - 20) = 180
             2x = 200
             /2      /2
               x = 100

Angle 1:             Angle 2:
x - 20                  x
100 - 20             100
80

Therefore the angle is 80 degrees.

Proof: 80 + 100 = 180 (supplementary)
100 - 80 = 20 (80 is less than supplement (100)

Hope I helped :))))

In decimal form, to the nearest tenth, what is the probability that a randomly selected Riverside High School student is in twel
Lunna [17]
We have that the total students there are 500. The 12-graders there are 200. Probability is defined as the ratio of positive outcomes of an event, over all the possible outcomes. Suppose we pick student randomly. Then, there are 200 positive outcomes (positive outcome: we pick a student in 12th grade) and there are totally 500 outcomes (we can pick 500 students in total from Riverside High School). This ratio gives: P= \frac{200}{500} =0.4. The requested probability is 0.40
