Answer:

184

Step-by-step explanation:

convert percentage into decimal:

40% = 40/100 = 0.4

Therefore 40% of 460 = 0.4 x 460 = 184

Solution:

Note that:

460 students = Total
40% = Male

Use the percentage formula to find out how much males attended the freedom academy.

Total males/Total students x 100 = % of males
=> x/460 x 100 = 40%
=> x/46 x 10 = 40%
=> x/23 x 5 = 40%
=> 5x/23 = 40%
=> 5x = 920
=> x = 920/5 = 184

184 males attended the Freedom academy.

What are the measurements of the two angles in the figure below?

IgorC [24]

Both angles need to equal 180 degrees .

Add them together:

2x +10 + 3x-5 = 180

5X +5 = 180

Subtract 5 from each side:

5x = 175

Divide both sides by 5:

X = 175 / 5

X = 35

Now replace X with 35 in each equation:

2x +10 = 2(35) +10 = 70 +10 = 80

3x-5 = 3(35) - 5 = 105 -5 = 100

The answer is A. 80 and 100
