Answer:
x = -4
m<LMP = 77°
m<NMP = 103°
Step-by-step explanation:
Straight angles by definition have a total measure of 180°.
This means that m<LMP and m<NMP are 180° together.
Therefore m<LMP + m<NMP = 180°.
[substitution property]
(-16x + 13)° + (-20x + 23)° = 180°
[associative property of addition]
(-36x + 36)° = 180°
-36x + 36 = 180
–36 –36
-36x = 144
÷-36 ÷-36
x = -4
_________________
Since m<LMP = (-16x + 13)°.
Using substitution with x = -4:
m<LMP = (-16(-4) + 13)° = (64 + 13)° = 77°.
Since m<NMP = (-20x + 23)°.
Using substitution with x = -4:
m<NMP = (-20(-4) + 23)° = (80 + 23)° = 103°.
This is true because 77° + 103° = 180°.
2/3 = 0.66
7/8 = 3.38
- 7/8 is bigger because if you convert each of the fractions into decimals you will find your answer

Answer:
D. 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The point U divides segment SP into the ratio 1 : 2. So, segment SU is 1/2 the length of segment UP.
SU = UP/2 = 3.6/2 = 1.8
The length of PS is ...
PS = PU +US = 3.6 +1.8
PS = 5.4

If you were asked to find the value of x, you would discover x=1. That is not what you're asked here.
