Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

"8 less than double a number is ten" can be converted into an algebraic equation.

-8 + 2x = 10

Then simplify.

2x = 18 (add 8 to both sides)

x = 9 (both sides divided by two)

Phoenix [80]

6.3 many more cups of dry food will Maria's pet have eaten than Trenton's pet will have eaten over 2 seven-day weeks

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , Trenton and Maria record how much dry food their pets eat on average each day.• Trenton's pet: 4/5 cup of dry food• Maria's pet: 1.25 cups of dry food. Based on these averages . We need to find  how many more cups of dry food will Maria's pet have eaten than Trenton's pet will have eaten over 2 seven-day weeks . We need to find how much they eat for 14 days as:

Trenton's pet: 4/5 cup of dry food•

With 4/5 per day , for 14 days :

⇒ 14(\frac{4}{5} )

⇒ 14(0.8 )

⇒ 11.2

Maria's pet: 1.25 cups of dry food.

With 1.25 per day , for 14 days :

⇒ 14(1.25 )

⇒ 17.5

Subtracting Maria's - Trenton's :

⇒ 17.5-11.2=6.3

That means , 6.3 many more cups of dry food will Maria's pet have eaten than Trenton's pet will have eaten over 2 seven-day weeks

Can anyone show me the steps in order solve this problem
STatiana [176]
M∠A = 42°   [isosceles triangle]

m∠B = 180 - 42 - 42 = 96°  [in a triangle, the three interior angles always add to 180°]

m∠C = 180 - 96 - (x+12)
m∠C = 84 - x - 12
m∠C = 72 - x

2x+9 + 3x-1 + 72-x = 180
4x + 80 = 180
4x = 180 - 80
4x = 100
x = 100/4
x = 25

m∠C = 72 - x = 72 - 25 = 47°
