First, let's define what an angle bisector is. Suppose you draw an angle labeled RST where the vertex is at point S, as shown in the attached picture. The angle bisector is a line segment that is drawn from the vertex S and extended outwards, such that it divides the angle into two equal parts. In this case, the angle bisector is line segment SV. The orange angle represents the total angle equal to (8x-14)°. The half of the angle, denoted as the red curve, represents (3x + 5)°. Th equation to be used is:

∠RST = 2×∠RSV
8x - 14 = 2(3x+5)
8x-14 = 6x + 10
8x - 6x = 10+14
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12°

Colin spends 1/3 of his wages on rent and 1/4 on food. If he makes £636 per week, how much money does he have left?
uysha [10]

Answer:

£265

Step-by-step explanation:

Total fraction of money spent= \frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{4}

                                                 = \frac{7}{12}

Actual money spent = \frac{7}{12} * £636

                                  = £371

Money he has left = £(636 - 371)

                               = £265

Edgar ran eee meters per second, and Mathieu ran mmm meters per second. The boys ran for ttt seconds.
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The expression showing how many more meters Mathieu ran than Edgar ran during that time is  t(m-e).

Step-by-step explanation:

Edgar ran 'e' meters per second, and Mathieu ran 'm' meters per second. The boys ran for 't' seconds.

The expression t(m-e) describes how many more meters Mathieu ran than Edgar ran during that time.

We can also use the expression tm-te represent the same quantity.

We know that,

\text{Distance} =\text{Speed}\times \text{Time}

Distance covered by Edgar = te

Distance covered by Mathieu = tm

Difference in distance d= tm - te=t(m-e)

The expression showing how many more meters Mathieu ran than Edgar ran during that time is  t(m-e).
