Answer:
option number a -4 and -9
we know that
<u>Vertical angles</u> are a pair of opposite and congruent angles formed by intersecting lines.
so
Let
x1---------> angle vertical 1
x2---------> angle vertical 2
x1=x2 ------> equation 1
in this problem
if the vertical angles formed are supplementary
that means that
x1+x2=180 ------> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
x1+x1=180
2x1=180
x1=180/2
x1=90 degrees
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
The vertical angles are right angles
Isolate the x. Subtract 3x from both sides, and add 4 to both sides
-2x (-3x) - 4 (+4) < 3x (-3x) + 21 (+4)
-2x - 3x < 21 + 4
Simplify. Combine like terms
-5x < 25
Isolate the x. Divide -5 from both sides (remember to flip the sign).
-5x/-5 < 25/-5
x > 25/-5
x > -5
x > -5 is your answer
hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-15x + 5 = -10x + 25
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Add 15x on both sides: 5 = 5x + 25
- Subtract 25 on both sides: -20 = 5x
- Divide 5 on both sides: -4 = x
- Rewrite: x = -4
