Answer:

x = 45, y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that two lines form a linear pair with equal measures. Therefore, the angle between the two lines will be 90. Now, according to the question,

2x + 20y - 10 =90

2x+20y = 100

x + 10y = 50

And

2x = 20y-10

x = 10y -5

x - 10 y = -5

Now, adding x + 10y = 50 and x - 10y =-5, the value of x can be found. The required value will be:

x + 10y =50

x - 10y = -5

------------------

x = 45

Therefore, the value of y after substitution of the value of x in one of the equations will be:

90 = 20y - 10

20 y = 100

y = 5

Hence, the required value of x and y are 45 and 5 respectively.

Carrie is buying bulk candy for a high school fundraiser. She buys 1000 candy bars for $350. What is the unit cost per candy bar
liubo4ka [24]
1000 candy bars ... $350
1 candy bar ... $x = ?

If you would like to know what is the unit cost per candy bar, you can calculate this using the following steps:

1000 * x = 350 * 1
1000 * x = 350    /1000
x = 350 / 1000
x = $0.35

Result: She can buy 1 candy bar for $0.35, so the correct result would be B) $.35.

Hi, having trouble understanding this question.. as well as solving it.
kramer

-- You have two angles.

-- They're complementary . . . they add up to 90 degrees.

-- One is 4 times as big as the other one.
___________________________________________

-- The smaller angle has 1 share of the 90 degrees.

-- The bigger angle has 4 shares of the 90 degrees.

-- (The smaller one is 1/4 the size of the bigger one.
   The bigger one is 4 times the size of the smaller one.)

-- When you add them together, you get 5 shares, totaling 90 degrees.

-- What's the size of each share ?  It's 90/5 = 18 degrees.

-- The smaller angle gets one share . . . 18 degrees.

-- The bigger angle gets 4 shares.   (4 x 18) = 72 degrees.
____________________________________

Check:

-- Is the small one 1/4 the size of the big one ?    18/72 = 1/4  Yes.

-- Are they complementary ?  Do they add up to 90 degrees ?

                                                                       18 + 72  =  90  Yes.

                                                                                 yay !
