The value of x so that lines s and t are parallel is 12

<h3 /><h3>How to find angles involving parallel lines?</h3>

The angle are alternate exterior angles.

Therefore, alternate exterior angle theorem states that when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then the exterior angles formed on either side of the transversal are equal.

Hence,

7x - 20 = 4x + 16

7x - 4x= 16 + 20

3x = 36

x = 36 / 3

x = 12

Therefore, the value of x is 12.

How can 17/20 and 7/4 make a sum of 9/10

Anika [276]

Answer:

the answer is $\frac{35}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find the common denominator in order to get the sum.

multiply 5 to $\frac{7}{4}$ and you get $\frac{35}{20}$

then to double check the sum, subtract it.

$\frac{35}{20}-\frac{17}{20}=\frac{9}{10}$

hope this make sense :/

Blaire needs more than 708 total points on assignments in her math class to pass. She only has 236 points and needs to do some e

blsea [12.9K]

Answer: D) x = 8

Step-by-step explanation: In order to get this answer, you need to keep the 236 and add 59 evry time until you get 708.

Another thing is to multiply 59 by 8, which will give you 472. Now we add 472 and 236 and we get 708.

59 x 8 = 472 + 236 = 708.

56 + 56 + 56 + 56 + 56 + 56 + 56 + 56 = 472 + 236 = 708.

Hope this helped!
