Recall that all three angles in a triangle equals 180.
Knowing this, we just have to add up all the angles and figure out what the value 'x' is.
(x-22 + x-17 + 3x+19) = 180
Simplify:
5x - 20 = 180
Add 20 to both sides:
5x = 200
Divide both sides by 5:
x = 40
Now that we found the value for x, we need to solve for angle A.
Simply input the value of 'x' into angle A's equation:
40 - 22 = 18
Angle A = 18 degrees
Good luck! If you need me to explain anything, just ask :))
-T.B.
The equation for the first option is Y=10x + 200
The equation for the second option is Y=30x + 100
X = one month
To find when they would be the same about you have to set the equations equal to each other
10x + 200 = 30x + 100
-10x -100 -10x -100
100= 20x
5 = x
After five months she would save the same amount. To find how much is saved you have to plug in 5 for x in one of the equations. You can always double-check 5 by plugging it in both equations and making sure you get the same answer
Y= 10(5) + 200 = 250
Y= 30(5) + 100 = 250
She would have saved $250 after five months by using either method
Option C
The football team had a overall loss of 2 yards
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
When the team gains yards we use a positive value, and when the team loses yards we use a negative value.
<em><u>Given that, football team gains 2 yards on the first play</u></em>
First play = +2
<em><u>Given that football team loses 5 yards on the second play</u></em>
Second play = -5
<em><u>Given that football team loses 3 yards on the third play</u></em>
Third play = -3
<em><u>Given that football team gains 4 yards on the fourth play</u></em>
Fourth play = +4
Put the yards from four plays together, we get
⇒ 2 -5 -3 + 4
Let us simplify
⇒ -3 -3 + 4 = -6 + 4 = -2
So, -2 represents loss of two yards (since negative value indicates loss)
