Answer:
A = 73.33
B = 53.33
C = 53.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, adding the 3 angles would equal 180
Thus;
A + B + C = 180 •••••(i)
Since B and C are congruent, that means they are equal ( we are looking at isosceles triangle)
B = C •••••••••(ii)
Lastly;
B = A -20 ••••••••(iii)
Make a substitution in equation 1;
A + A -20 + A -20 = 180
Since B = C ; C also is A-20
3A -40 = 180
3A = 220
A = 220/3 = 73.33
B = C = A -20 = 73.33 -20 = 53.33
You can solve all of these by using the distance formula. I have shared it below.
Answer:
Let the cost of orange be X and cost of cherry be y
3x + 9y = 78
8x + 4y = 58
Solving equation using elimination method
multiplying eq 1 with 8 and eq 2 with 3
8(3x + 9y ) = 78(8)
3( 8x + 4y) = 3(58)
24x + 72 y = 624
24x + 12y = 174
subtracting,
60 y = 450
y = 7.5
3x + 9(7.5) = 78
3x + 67.5 = 78
3x = 78 - 67.5
3x = 10.5
x = 3.5
<h2>Box of orange = $3.5 </h2><h2>Box of cherry = $7.5</h2>
