Answer: x = -9/ addition property of equality

Explanation: In this problem, we're given that x - 7 = -16 and we're asked to solve the equation and explain which equality we used.

The first statement we have will be

the given statement which is x - 7 = -16.

Now, we just solve the equation.

Our first and only step will be to add 7 to both sides.

Then, we find that x = -9.

The property we used here was the addition property of equality.

This property tells us that we can add the same quantity,

or equal quantities, to both sides of an equation.

Please Help Identify each angle pair. Choose from the list below.

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The answer is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate exterior angles: I is a pair of angles on the outer side of the each of two parallel lines but on opposite side of the transversal.

Vertically opposite angles: They are angles opposite each other when two lines intersect each other or cross each other.

Corresponding angles: The angles which occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a transversal intersect the two parallel lines.

Same side interior angles: These are the angles between the parallel lines with the transversal.

Alternate interior angles: These are those angles that are alternate to each other and lie inside the parallel lines forming in Z shape.

Linear pair angles: It is a pair of adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines

$\angle 1\ and\ \angle 6:\ \textrm{alternate exterior angles}\\\angle 1\ and\ \angle 3:\ \textrm{Vertical opposite angles}\\\angle 3\ and\ \angle 6:\ \textrm{corresponding angles}\\\angle 4\ and\ \angle 8:\ \textrm{same side interior angles}\\\angle 4\ and\ \angle 5:\ \textrm{alternate interior angles}\\\angle 5\ and\ \angle 6:\ \textrm{linear pair angles}$
