Answer:
118°
Step-by-step explanation:
When two parallel lines are cut by a tranversal, then the exterior angles are supplimentary and the corresponding angles are congruent.
Therefore the angle above (15x - 17)° is also (5x + 17)° and the angle below (5x + 17)° is also (15x - 17)°.
Angles on a straight line adds up to 180°. So to know the measure of the larger angle we must both equations and equal it to 180° to find x in order to know the larger angle.
(5x + 17) + (15x - 17) = 180
5x + 15x + 17 - 17 = 180
20x = 180
20x/20 = 180/20
x = 9°
Nkw let's substitute x = 9 into the equations
5x + 17 =
5(9) + 17 =
= 62°
15x - 17 =
15(9) - 17 =
= 118°
Both equations should add up to be 180°.
Therefore the measure of the largest angle is 118°.
Answer: 0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:
Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color A is black
15% = 15/100 = 0.15 (decimal form)
0.15 A
Sixty percent of the pigment in paint color B is black
0.6 B
An unknown amount of paint color B is mixed with 40 ml of paint color A,
SO:
0.15 (0.40)
0.6 (x-0.40)
x = total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors
The result is a paint that contains 25% (0.25 in decimal form)black pigment (x)
0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)

Step-by-step explanation:
7 - 3b-2(0 + 3 - 2b)
To simplify the expression in the box, Fatua used
these steps:
Step 1:7 - 3b-2(3 - 3b)
Step 2:7 - 3-6-36-
Step 3: -13 - 66
Did Fatua calculate correctly? if nnot, in what step
did she make her FIRST mistake?
