A girl asks her father how many ties he has and he answers with a riddle: "seven-eighths of my ties plus four."

What he's saying is that 7/8 of his ties + 4 ties = all of his ties.
7/8x + 4 = x
Thus, 4 is 1/8 of his ties.
4 = 1/8x
So you simply multiply 4 by 8 to get 32 ties.
32 = x
To check, plug 32 back into the original equation:
7/8(32) + 4 = (32)
28 + 4 = 32
It works!
Hope that helps.

Answer:

9) 21

10) 70

11) 34

12) 31

13) 50

14) 31

15) 137

16) 101

Step-by-step explanation:

9)

20+40=60

60 + b =180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

b = 180 - 60

b = 120

39 + c + ? = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 ) c =120 ( vertically opposite angles are equal )

39 + 120 + ? = 180

159 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 159

? = 21

10)

60 + 65 + b = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

125 + b = 180

b = 180 - 125

b = 55

50 + b + c = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

50 + 55 + c = 180

105 + c = 180

c = 180 - 105

c = 75

35 + c + ? = 180

35 + 75 + ? = 180

110 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 110

? = 70

11)

84 + 36 + b = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

120 + b = 180

b = 180 - 120

b = 60

86 + b + ? = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

86 + 60 + ? = 180

146 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 146

? = 34

________________________________________________________________________________________

12)

35 + 23 + b = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

58 + b = 180

b = 180 - 58

b = 122

27 + c + ? = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 ) c =122 ( vertically opposite angles are equal )

27 + 122 + ? = 180

149 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 149

? =31

________________________________________________________________________________________

13)

115 + b = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

b = 180 - 115

b = 65

65 + 90 + c = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

155 + c = 180

c = 180 - 155

c = 25

155 + d = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

d = 180 - 155

d = 25

c + d + e = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

25 + 25 + e = 180

50 + e = 180

e = 180 - 50

e = 130

e + ? = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

130 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 130

? = 50

14)

35 + 20 + b = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

55 + b = 180

b = 180 - 55

b = 125

156 + c = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

c = 180 - 156

c = 24

c + e + ? = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 ) e= 125 ( vertically opposite angles are equal )

24 + 125 + ? = 180

149 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 149

? = 31

________________________________________________________________________________________

15)

b = 45 ( vertically opposite angles are equal )

b + 60 + c = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

45 + 60 + c = 180

105 + c = 180

c = 180 - 105

c = 75

68 + 75 + e = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

143 + e = 180

e = 180 - 143

e = 37

100 + 37 + j = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

137 + j = 180

j = 180 - 137

j = 43

j + ? = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

43 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 43

? = 137

________________________________________________________________________________________

16)

b = 75 ( vertically opposite angles are equal )

c = 45 ( vertically opposite angles are equal )

b + c + e = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

75 + 45 + e = 180

120 + e = 180

e = 180 - 120

e = 60

e + 79 + j = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

60 + 79 + j = 180

139 + j = 180

j = 180 - 139

j = 41

j + 60 + s = 180 ( sum of the interior angles on a triangle is 180 )

41 + 60 + s = 180

101 + s = 180

s = 180 - 101

s = 79

s + ? = 180 ( sum of the angels on a straight line is 180 )

79 + ? = 180

? = 180 - 79

? = 101

Help ME! solve for ∠K.
Ainat [17]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Every Triangle has 180 degrees.

x + 8x + 3x = 180

12x = 180

x = 180/12

x = 15

Angle K = 3x

K = 3 * 15

K = 45

The graph of y = - 1/2x +2 is positive over the interval (-♾,4) and negative over the interval (4,♾). What happens on the graph
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

There is no solution when x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

By drawing the graph, we can see that x = 4 is a vertical asymptote. An asymptote is a line in which the graph approaches it but never meets it. As a result, the graph will never approach x=4. This means there is no solution at x = 4
