Fractions are important because they tell you what portion of a whole you need, have, or want. fractions are used in baking to tell how much of an ingredient to use. fractions are used intelling time; each minute is a fraction of the hour.

If the measure of angle ABF=6x+26 and the measure of angle EBF=2x9 and measure of angle ABE= 11x-31 find the measure of angle AB
Hunter-Best [27]

Its not clearly given that whether EBF = 2x + 9 or 2x - 9.

I have written the solution for both.

If EBF = 2x + 9,

then ABF = 6x + 26 and ABE = 11x - 31.

Now, ABE = ABF + EBF

11x - 31 = (6x + 26) + (2x + 9)

           = (6x + 2x) + (26 + 9)

           = 8x + 35

11x - 8x = 35 + 31

3x = 66

x = 22

Therefore, ABF = 6x + 26 = 6(22) + 26 = 132 + 26 = 158°

If EBF = 2x - 9,

then ABF = 6x + 26 and ABE = 11x - 31.

Now, ABE = ABF + EBF

11x - 31 = (6x + 26) + (2x - 9)

           = (6x + 2x) + (26 - 9)

           = 8x + 17

11x - 8x = 17 + 31

3x = 48

x = 16

Therefore, ABF = 6x + 26 = 6(16) + 26 = 96 + 26 = 122°

gavmur [86]

Answer:

1. Linear

2. Nonlinear

3. Linear

4. Linear

5. Nonlinear

Step-by-step explanation:

Thies equation are in the form y=mx+b. Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. To solve them you neeed to see the power x is taken to. If the power on x is bigger than 1 than one, then it will curve at some point. This makes 2 and 5 nonlinear

In triangle XYZ, m∠Z > m∠X + m∠Y. Which must be true about △XYZ?
Solnce55 [7]
Since z is GREATER THAN two angles in the triangle it must be obtuse..
meaning it is GREATER THAN 90 degrees this means that the other two angles cannot equal 90 degrees they have to be less

m∠X + m∠Y < 90°
