Answer:

The value of x is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

c and d are complementary angles.

Measure of c = $4x$

Measure of d = 26

Since c and d are complementary, we can write from property of complementary:

$c + d = 90$

Putting values, we get,

$4x + 26 =90\\4x = 90-26 = 64\\\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{64}{4} = 16$

Thus, value of x is 16.

Paraphin [41]

Hello there!

So, as we see here, we can see that they start out with 20,000 members. 25% of 20,000 would be 5,000 members.

So, every year, they lose 25% which is 5,000 members of they team. But then they gain 10,000 more.

So, practically, they get 5,000 every year even though they get 25% off.

5,000 would be the answer.

The parking spaces in a city lot were created by painting rows of parallel line segments, then painting a line that cuts through

Svetach [21]

Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

The consecutive interior angles theorem states that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal line then the resulting pair of consecutive angles formed are supplementary (that is they add up to 180°).

Given that the painting rows are parallel to each other and a painted line (transversal) cut the parallel lines forming consecutive interior angles m∠1 and m∠2. Therefore:

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180°

m∠1 + 115 = 180

m∠1 = 180 - 115

m∠1 = 65°

Does anyone know what the inequality would be?

dsp73

Let x = number of batches.

So for every batch, you need 2 cups of flour, and you have 20 cups of flour. You cannot make a batch if you don't have the sufficient amount. So using our information, our inequality is $2x \leq 20$ . However, this can be further simplified.

For this inequality, divide both sides by 2, and <u>your inequality is $x\leq 10$ .</u> <u>In context, you can make up to 10 batches of cookies.</u>
