Answer: 5 + j/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing the fare equally
Since they shared the j fare evenly among 3 people, you would divide the j fare by 3 to get j/3
So each person, including Angela, paid j/3 dollars before the tip
Adding the tip
Angela then added 5 dollars to this j/3 so the expression would become 5 + j/3
Final Answer
Angela paid $5 + j/3
The triangles are similar so the angles are equal
2x^2 - 2 = 10x - 2
2x^2 - 2 - 10x + 2 = 0
2x^2 - 10x = 0
2x(x - 5) = 0
2x = 0 OR x - 5 = 0
x = 0 OR x = 5
0 doesn't make sense, because IF I plug 0 into 2x^2 - 2 I get a negative number. We need to use 5 to find the angle measure
2(5^2) - 2 = 2(25) - 2 = 50 - 2 = 48 degrees or the measure of CED
I think it is D
Hope my answer help you?!
