Answer:

70° and 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, two parallel lines l and m are intersected by a transversal t.

The interior angles on same side of transversal are (2x−8)° and (3x−7)°.

We need to find the measure of these angles.

We know that, the sum of interior angles of the same side of the  transversal is equal to 180°. So,

(2x−8)° + (3x−7)° = 180°

⇒ 5x-15=180°

⇒5x=180°+15

⇒5x=195

⇒x=39

Put x = 39 in (2x−8)°,

(2x−8)° = (2(39)-8)°

=70°

Again put x = 39 in (3x−7)°,

(3x−7)° = (3(39)-7)°

=110°

So, the measure of these angles are 70° and 110°.

Determine the first four terms of the sequence in which the nth term is a_n=(n+1)!/(n+2)!
Vilka [71]

Answer: Choice B) 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6

=============================================

Plug in n = 1 to find the first term

a_n = ( (n+1)! )/( (n+2)! )

a_1 = ( (1+1)! )/( (1+2)! )

a_1 = ( 2! )/( 3! )

a_1 = ( 2*1 )/( 3*2*1 )

a_1 = 2/6

a_1 = 1/3

The first term is 1/3. Optionally you can stop here because only choice B has 1/3 listed as the first term, so this must be the answer. However, I'm going to keep going to show how to find the three other terms. This will help confirm why choice B is the answer, and it will be handy for those times when you aren't given multiple choice answers.

------------

Plug in n = 2

a_n = ( (n+1)! )/( (n+2)! )

a_2 = ( (2+1)! )/( (2+2)! )

a_2 = ( 3! )/( 4! )

a_2 = ( 3*2*1 )/( 4*3*2*1 )

a_2 = 6/24

a_2 = 1/4

The second term is 1/4

------------

Plug in n = 3

a_n = ( (n+1)! )/( (n+2)! )

a_3 = ( (3+1)! )/( (3+2)! )

a_3 = ( 4! )/( 5! )

a_3 = ( 4*3*2*1 )/( 5*4*3*2*1 )

a_3 = 24/120

a_3 = 1/5

The third term is 1/5

------------

Plug in n = 4

a_n = ( (n+1)! )/( (n+2)! )

a_4 = ( (4+1)! )/( (4+2)! )

a_4 = ( 5! )/( 6! )

a_4 = ( 5*4*3*2*1 )/( 6*5*4*3*2*1 )

a_4 = 120/720

a_4 = 1/6

The fourth term is 1/6

------------

The first four terms are: 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, so that confirms why choice B is the answer.

A recipe says it produced the best sweet tea. In addition to using tea bags, the recipe calls for ½ cup of sugar for every 1 ½ c
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The relationship between the number of cups of water and sugar  in the recipe is w = ¹/₃(s)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

number of cups of sugar = s

number of cups of water = w

The relationship between the number of cups of water and sugar in this recipe is given as;

½ cup of sugar is proportional to 1 ½ cups of water

\frac{1}{2} s = \frac{3}{2}w\\\\s= 3w\\\\w = \frac{s}{3}

Therefore, the relationship between the number of cups of water and sugar  in the recipe is w = ¹/₃(s)
