Answer:
x = -4
m<LMP = 77°
m<NMP = 103°
Step-by-step explanation:
Straight angles by definition have a total measure of 180°.
This means that m<LMP and m<NMP are 180° together.
Therefore m<LMP + m<NMP = 180°.
[substitution property]
(-16x + 13)° + (-20x + 23)° = 180°
[associative property of addition]
(-36x + 36)° = 180°
-36x + 36 = 180
–36 –36
-36x = 144
÷-36 ÷-36
x = -4
_________________
Since m<LMP = (-16x + 13)°.
Using substitution with x = -4:
m<LMP = (-16(-4) + 13)° = (64 + 13)° = 77°.
Since m<NMP = (-20x + 23)°.
Using substitution with x = -4:
m<NMP = (-20(-4) + 23)° = (80 + 23)° = 103°.
This is true because 77° + 103° = 180°.
Answer:
3.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (w + h)
w = width
h = height
We have: 2 x (w + 6) = 19
w + 6 = 19 : 2 = 9.5
w = 9.5 - 6 = 3.5 (cm)
Answer:
83
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 7x - 1
Put x as 12.
f(12) = 7(12) - 1
f(12) = 84 - 1
f(12) = 83
