Paul was going to sell all of his stamp collection (s) to buy a video game. After selling half of them he changed his mind. He then bought ten more. How many did he start with if he now has 22?

Paul had 24

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 22 now. Subtract the 10 he just bought for 12, which was half of his original collection.

22-10=12

12×2=24

a. 74 degrees

step-by-step explanation:

because the lines through the side and the box in the corners shows that these are congruent triangles and since they are mirrored the 37 degrees is also mirrored so the answer is 37 * 2 which is 74.

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is
