A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC b

elow is equal to the measure of the exterior angle.
Step 1: m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)

Step 2: m∠p − m∠o = 90 degrees (alternate interior angles)

Step 3: Therefore, m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = m∠o + m∠p

Step 4: So, m∠m + m∠n = m∠p

In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected?

1.) Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)

2.) Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (adjacent angles)

3.) Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (alternate exterior angles)

4.) Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

Answer:

4.) Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

Step-by-step explanation:

o and p are supplementary angles, and therefore add up to 180 degrees.

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The y-intercept is the height of the candle before it was lit

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is at 0 on the x-axis meaning that not time has passed, so the candle is at its original height

Solve the system of equations below. Enter your answer in the boxes.
Vesna [10]
Simplifying
8a + 12b = 92

Solving
8a + 12b = 92

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-12b' to each side of the equation.
8a + 12b + -12b = 92 + -12b

Combine like terms: 12b + -12b = 0
8a + 0 = 92 + -12b
8a = 92 + -12b

Divide each side by '8'.
a = 11.5 + -1.5b

Simplifying
a = 11.5 + -1.5b

Given the function f(x)=9-2x, find x when f(x)=25<br><br> -41<br> 17<br> -8
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the function f(x)=9-2x equal to 25, and then solve the resulting equation for x:

9 - 2x = 25.

Isolate the -2x term by subracting 9 from both sides:

-2x = 16

Finally, solve for x by dividing both sides by -2:

x = -16/2, or x = -8

Which one of these represents the graph in this picture right here ? A,B,C,D,E or F?
arlik [135]

Answer:

A) y=3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula y=mx+b

m is the slope and b is the y intercept

the graph starts on 1 on the y axis so you replace 1 for b

the slope goes up 3 and over one, giving the fraction 3/1 or just 3. so you replace 3 for m.
