Answer:

The measure of the angle is <u>64</u> degree.

The measure of the supplement is <u>116</u> degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the measure of the angle be 'x'.

Given:

Supplement of the angle is 12 less than twice the measure of the angle.

Twice the angle means 2 times of the angle which is 2x and 12 less means 12 is subtracted from 2x.

So, supplement of the angle = 2x-12

Now, by definition of supplementary angles, if two angles are supplement of one another, then their sum is 180 degrees.

Therefore, the sum of the given angles = 180°

⇒ x+2x-12=180

⇒ 3x-12=180

⇒ 3x=180+12

⇒ 3x=192

⇒ x=\frac{192}{3}=64\°

The measure of the supplement = 2(64)-12=128-12=116

The measure of the angle is <u>64</u> degree.

The measure of the supplement is <u>116</u> degree.

What is the fourth term in the binomial expansion of (2x – y) 7?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

(7C4) (2x)^4 (-y)^{7-4}

And replacing we got:

35 (2^4) x^4 (-y)^{-3}

And then the final term would be:

-560 x^4 y^3

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following expression:

(2x-y)^7

And we can use the binomial theorem given by:

(x+y)^n =\sum_{k=0}^n (nCk) x^k y^{n-k}

And for this case we want to find the fourth term and using the formula we have:

(7C4) (2x)^4 (-y)^{7-4}

And replacing we got:

35 (2^4) x^4 (-y)^{-3}

And then the final term would be:

-560 x^4 y^3
