Answer:
170
Step-by-step explanation:
The given relations can be used to write and solve an equation for the number of stickers Peter has.
<h3>Setup</h3>
Let p represent the number of stickers Peter has. That is twice as many as Joe, so Joe has (p/2) stickers. Joe has 40 more stickers than Emily, so the number of stickers Emily has is (p/2 -40).
The total number of stickers is 300:
p +p/2 +(p/2 -40) = 300
<h3>Solution</h3>
2p = 340 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 40, collect terms
p = 170 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
Peter has 170 stickers.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Joe has 170/2 = 85 stickers. Emily has 85-40 = 45 stickers.
We could write three equations in three unknowns. Solving those using substitution would result in substantially the same equation that we have above. Or, such a system of equations could be solved using a calculator's matrix functions, as in the attachment.
p +j +e = 300
p -2j +0e = 0
0p +j -e = 40
The answer I believe would be C.
Answer:
c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The lines l and m are parallel lines.
The parallel lines cut two transverse lines. Here we can use the properties of transverse and find the incorrect statements.
a. m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠3 + m∠4
Here m∠1 and m∠2 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.
m∠3 and m∠4 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.
Therefore, the statement is true.
b. m∠1 + m∠5 = m∠3 + m∠4
m∠1 + m∠5 = 180 same side of the adjacent angles.
m∠3 + m∠4 = 180, supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.
Therefore, the statement is true.
Now let's check c.
m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6
We can cancel out m∠6, we get
m∠1 = m∠4 which is not true
Now let's check d.
m∠3 + m∠4 = m∠7 + m∠4
We can cancel out m∠4, we get
m∠3 = m∠7, alternative interior angles are equal.
It is true.
Therefore, answer is c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6
will be a factor whenever the remainder term
vanishes. But this will never happen for any integer
, so I suspect the question is inaccurately posed. Are there some characters missing?
