<span>We prove first the direct implication. Assume n is even. Then n = 2k for some integer k. Then 7n + 4 = 14k + 4 = 2(7k + 2), which is even. For the converse, which is “if 7n + 4 is even, then n is even”, we use a proof by contrapositive. The contrapositive is: “if n is not even (that is, odd), then 7n + 4 is not even (that is, odd) If n is odd, then n = 2k + 1, for some integer k. Then 7n + 4 = 14k + 11 = 2(7k + 5) + 1, which is odd.</span>

A side of the triangle below has been extended to form an exterior angle of 164". Find
Arada [10]

Given:

Measure of exterior angle = 164°

The measure of opposite interior angles are x° and 53°.

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

According to the Exterior Angle Theorem, in a triangle the measure of an exterior angles is always equal to the sum of measures of two opposite interior angles.

Using Exterior Angle Theorem, we get

x^\circ+53^\circ=164^\circ

x^\circ=164^\circ-53^\circ

x^\circ=111^\circ

x=111

Therefore, the value of x is 111.

Linda purchase a prepaid phone card for $30. Long distance calls cost $.17 a minute using this card when do use her card. Linda
balandron [24]

Answer: her call lasted for 44 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Linda purchase a prepaid phone card for $30. This means that the credit on her card is $30.

Long distance calls cost $0.17 each. Linda use her card only to make a long distance call. Assuming she made a total of x minutes of long distance calls, the cost would be $0.17x. The amount remaining on her card will be

30 - 0.17x

if the remaining credit on her card is $22.52, the number of minutes,x that the call lasted will be

22.52 = 30 - 0.17x

0.17x = 30 - 22.52

0.17x = 7.48

x = 7.48/0.17 = 44
