Answer:

  32 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

For some number of seconds (s), Tess's essay length (t) will be ...

  t = 42 +1.3s

and Margo's essay length (m) will be ...

  m = 122 -1.2s

We will have t > m when ...

  t > m

  42 +1.3s > 122 -1.2s

  2.5s > 80 . . . . . . . . add 1.2s-42

  s > 32 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2.5

After 32 seconds, Tess's essay will exceed Margo's in length.

determine the value of x for which r parallels s. then find the measure of angle 1 and the measure of angle 2measure angle 1= 50
Maslowich

According to the picture, angles 1 and 2 have the same measure because they are corresponding angles. Make equal both expressions for 1 and 2 and find x.

\begin{gathered} 50-2x=110-42x \\ 42x-2x=110-50 \\ 40x=60 \\ x=\frac{60}{40} \\ x=\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}

x is 3/2. Replace this value in both expression to find the measure of each angle.

\begin{gathered} \measuredangle1=50-2x \\ \measuredangle1=50-2(\frac{3}{2}) \\ \measuredangle1=50-3 \\ \measuredangle1=47 \\ \measuredangle2=110-42x \\ \measuredangle2=110-42(\frac{3}{2}) \\ \measuredangle2=110-63 \\ \measuredangle2=47 \end{gathered}

The measure of these angles is 47°
