the price of a computer was decreased by 20% to £136. what was the price before it was decreased

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

x* .20 is the decrease

x - .20x = new price

.80x = new price

.8x = 136

Divide each side by .8

.8x/.8 = 136/.8

x =170

in triangle ABC, bisectors of angle A and angle C cross each other in point M. find angle ABC if it is half of AMC. (no shape given)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\angle ABC=60[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex][Kindly\ refer\ the\ image\ attachment.]\\We\ are\ given\ that,\\AM\ is\ the\ Angle\ Bisector\ of\ \angle BAC.\\Hence,\\\angle BAM= \angle MAC\\CM\ is\ the\ Angle\ Bisector\ of\ \angle BCA.\\Hence,\\\angle BCM= \angle MCA.\\Also,\\\angle AMC=2 \angle ABC[/tex]

[tex]Now,\\As\ we\ can\ observe\ that,\\\angle BCM + \angle MCA= \angle BCA\\\angle MCA+ \angle MCA= \angle BCA\ [\angle BCM = \angle MCA]\\Hence,\\2 \angle MCA= \angle BCA\\Or, \\\angle MCA=\frac{\angle BCA}{2} \\\\Similarly,\\\angle BAM + \angle MAC= \angle BAC\\\angle MAC + \angle MAC= \angle BAC\\2 \angle MAC = \angle BAC\\Or,\\\angle MAC=\frac{\angle BAC}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Through\ the\ Angle\ Sum\ Property\ of\ a\ Triangle,\ we\ know\ that:\\'The\ Sum\ of\ all\ interior\ angles\ of\ a\ triangle\ is\ 180.'\\Hence,\\In\ \triangle BAC,\\\angle ABC + \angle BCA + \angle CAB=180\\In\ \triangle MAC,\\\angle MAC+ \angle ACM + \angle AMC=180[/tex]

[tex]Hence,\\As\ \angle AMC= 2 \angle ABC, \angle MCA=\frac{\angle BCA}{2}, \angle MAC=\frac{\angle BAC}{2},\\2 \angle ABC+\frac{\angle BCA}{2}+\frac{\angle BAC}{2}=180\\By\ resolving\ the\ denominators,\\\frac{4 \angle ABC+\angle BCA+\angle BAC}{2}=180\\\\By\ comparing\ the\ Sum\ of\ angles\ in\ both\ the\ triangles,\\We\ find\ that\ the\ RHS\ of\ both\ the\ equations\ are\ equal\ i.e.180,\\The\ LHS\ of\ the\ equations\ are\ equal\ too.\\[/tex]

[tex]Hence,\\\angle ABC+ \angle BCA + \angle BAC=\frac{4 \angle ABC+\angle BCA+\angle BAC}{2}\\Hence,\\2(\angle ABC+ \angle BCA + \angle BAC)=4 \angle ABC+\angle BCA+\angle BAC\\Hence,\\2 \angle ABC+ 2 \angle BCA + 2 \angle BAC=4 \angle ABC+\angle BCA+\angle BAC\\Hence,\\2 \angle BCA + 2 \angle BAC-\angle BCA- \angle BAC=4 \angle ABC- 2 \angle ABC\\Hence,\\\angle BCA+\angle BAC= 2\angle ABC[/tex]

[tex]Lets\ get\ back\ to\ the\ Angle\ Sum\ of\ \triangle ABC,\\\angle ABC + \angle BAC + \angle ACB=180\\Hence,\\As\ \angle BCA + \angle BAC= 2 \angle ABC,\\\angle ABC + 2 \angle ABC=180\\Hence,\\3 \angle ABC=180\\\angle ABC=\frac{180}{3}=60[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 11 animals in the barnyard with a total of 32 legs. Some are cows and some are ducks.
How many of each animal are there?

Answers

5 cows and 6 ducks because since they are 11 animals and a total of 32 legs we need to solve for how many per legs which is 5x 4 = 20 legs and 6 x 2 = 12 legs summing them up gives 32 legs in total

Lines AB, CD, and LK intersect as shown in the diagram . Find M

Answers

the last one is the answer

The measurement of ∠ CSK = 110.2°

What is Parallel line?

Parallel lines are those lines that are equidistant from each other and never meet, no matter how much they may be extended in either directions.

Given that Lines AB, CD, and LK intersects at R and S respectively,

m∠LRB = (3x - 2)° and m∠RSC = (2x - 5)

m∠LRB = m∠CSK  → (Alternate exterior angles)

m∠CSK + m∠RSC = 180°  → (Linear pair angles)

Therefore, m∠LRB + m∠RSC = 180°

(3x - 2)° + (2x - 5) =  180°

5x - 7 = 180°

5x = 187°

x = 37.4°

So, m∠CSK =  (3x - 2)°

(3x - 2)° = 3*37.4 - 2

m∠CSK = 110.2°

Hence, The measurement of ∠ CSK = 110.2°

find the values of x and y?

Answers

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't see a y in the diagram.

The 3 angles x, 90 and (4x - 10) lie on the line EF and sum to 180°, so

x + 90 + 4x - 10 = 180, that is

5x + 80 = 180 ( subtract 80 from both sides )

5x = 100 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 20

X=20 is the answer

How to graph 2x + y = 4 ?
Explain steps please !!

Answers

you need to rearrange your equation to make y the subject which would be

y= -2x+4

this now matches the formula y= mx+c , -2 being m and 4 being c.

c is your y intercept so the graph will go through 4 on the y axis. Then m is the gradient of your graph and because it is negative you know it is going downwards. 2 means that every unit value you go across the x axis the y axis will go down 2.

To find where your graph crosses the x axis you need to make y=0 in your equation which looks like
0=-2x+4
2x=4
x=2

Now you know that your x intercept is 2 so you can draw a line going through 4 on the y axis and 2 on the x axis like my photo.

3. x = -1

4. y = 4

1. Simply subtract equal and opposite values from positive values and do the same on both sides. Divide the final x value by its coefficient to get 1x = -7

2. Do the same as above AFTER distributing the 4(5 - x)

3. Once again, distribute all values then combine like terms like #1

4. This one uses a fraction to distribute, but it is just like dividing the number by 3 instead of multiplying (6/3 instead of 6 * 3)
