A + b = 70
a = 2/5b

2/5b + b = 70
2/5b + 5/5b = 70
7/5b = 70
b = 70 * 5/7
b = 350/7
b = 50

a = 2/5b
a = 2/5(50)
a = 100/5
a = 20

the numbers are 50 and 20....the smallest being 20 and the largest being 50

X + 2/5x = 70
1x + 2/5x = 70
1 2/5 x = 70
7/5 x = 70  multiply both sides by 5
7x = 350  divide both sides by 7
x = 50    so 2/5 x = 20    the two numbers are 50 and 20
the larger of the two is 50

If the m∠1=123° m ∠ 1 = 123 ° and m∠2= (2x+7)° m ∠ 2 = ( 2 x + 7 ) ° , determine the value of x that supports l∥m l ∥ m . Show y

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that m<1 nad m<2 are supplementary. Since the sum of supplementary angles is 180degrees, hence;

<1 + <2= 180

123+2x+7 = 180

130+2x = 180

2x = 180 - 130

2x = 50

x = 50/2

x = 25

Hence the value of x is 25
