Answer:

  c = 15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 9, then reduce the fraction.

  9(5/6) = c

  15/2 = c

_____

<em>Alternate methods</em>

You are usually told to "cross-multiply" which means you multiply the expression by the product of the denominators. this would give you ...

  9(5) = 6(c)

Then you would divide by the coefficient of c to get ...

  (9·5)/6 = c = 15/2

__

Since c is multiplied by 1/9, you can solve this by multiplying by the inverse of that coefficient, 9. That is what is done in the first section above. Usually, this does in one step what the "cross-multiply" method does in 2 steps.

__

The "cross multiply" step can also be done by multiplying by the least common multiple of the denominators, 18. Then you have ...

  18(5/6) = 18(c/9)

  15 = 2c

Now, dividing by the coefficient of c gives ...

  15/2 = c

PLEASE HELP !! ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST !!
zimovet [89]

Answer: #1 is the answer. Alternate exterior angles are the pair of angles that lie on the outer side of the two parallel lines but on either side of the transversal line. Notice how the pairs of alternating exterior angles lie on opposite sides of the transversal but outside the two parallel lines.

Step-by-step explanation: Parallel Lines: Definition: We say that two lines (on the same plane) are parallel to each other if they never intersect each other, ragardless of how far they are extended on either side. Pictorially, parallel lines run along each other like the tracks of a train.
