Answer:
1) x = 17, line a parallel to line b
2) x = 18, line a parallel to line b
Step-by-step explanation:
If line a parallel to line b then (10x - 40) + 50 = 180
Solve for x
10x - 40 + 50 = 180
Combine like terms
10x + 10 = 180
10x = 170
x = 17
x = 17, line a parallel to line b
-------------------------------------------------
If line a parallel to line b then 5x - 16 = 74
Solve for x
5x - 16 = 74
5x = 90
x = 18
x = 18, line a parallel to line b
Answer: C is the answer to this problem I believe
X-5 is greater than or equal to -28
X*4 is less than or equal to -10
(x/3) + 6 is greater than 14
That’s nice to know i guess? i don’t know where you’re trying to go with this-
1) old: 4 ; new: 5 = (5-4)/4 = 1/4 = 25% increase
2) old: 1.0 ; new: 1.3 = (1.3 - 1.0)/1.0 = 0.30/1 = 30% increase
3) old: 15 ; new: 12 = (12-15)/15 = 3/15 = 1/5 = 20% decrease
4) old: 30 ; new: 18 = (18-30)/30 = 12/30 = 2/5 = 40% decrease
5) old: 60 ; new: 63 = (63-60)/60 = 3/60 = 1/20 = 5% increase
6) old: 160 ; new: 136 = (136-160)/160 = 24/160 = 12/80 = 3/20 = 15% decrease
7) old: 7.7 ; new: 10.5 = (10.5-7.7)/7.7 = 2.8/7.7 = 36% increase
8) old: 9.6 ; new: 5.9 = (5.9-9.6)/9.6 = 3.7/9.6 = 39% decrease
