$\bf \stackrel{\measuredangle A}{(5x-14)}+\stackrel{\measuredangle D}{(4x+5)}=\stackrel{\textit{linear angles}}{180}\implies 9x-9=180 \\\\\\ 9x=171\implies x=\cfrac{171}{9}\implies x=19 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \overline{DC}\implies -2x+54\implies -2(19)+54\implies -38+54\implies 16$

Answer:

DC = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram consecutive angles are supplementary, that is

∠DAB and ∠ADC are consecutive and supplementary, thus

5x - 14 + 4x + 5 = 180

9x - 9 = 180 ( add 9 to both sides )

9x = 189 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 21

Hence

DC = - 2x + 54 = (- 2 × 21) + 54 = - 42 + 54 = 12

What is the compatable number of 358/3

Fudgin [204]

Round 358 to the nearest 5 or 10, which would be 360. 360/3=120 so the compatible number would be 120.

What is this I am so confused please help

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

When you write exponential form to radical form, the fraction tells us that kind of root it is. Since it is a cubed root, as indicated by the 3 in front of the radical, we know that the fraction will be $\frac{1}{3}$ . If it were to be $\frac{1}{3}$ , the entire radical would be to the power of 1. Since the radical is to the power of x, our answer would be $125^{\frac{1}{3}x }$ .
