First, convert 3/5 to a percent by multiplying it by 20/20, getting 60/100, or 60%. Then, find 60% of 40 by multiplying 60 by 40 to get 2,400 and divide it by 100 to get 24, meaning Mark spend $24 on both books. Each of the books cost $12, as 24/2 is 12.

A and B are vertical angles. If m A = (3x+3)° and m B= (4x-8)°, then find the value of x.

iogann1982 [59]

Answer: x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

First, since angle A and angle B are vertical angles, that means that they are congruent. If they are congruent, then the m of angle A equals the measure of angle B. So, (3x+3)=(4x-8). Simplify using algebra so that in the end, you will find that x=11.

3x+3=4x-8

3=x-8

11=x

Theres a ratio of 1:4

Where Jamie has driven 4 times as much as Rhonda
