The measure of each angle is 117°

Explanation:

Given that the two angles are (11x-26)° and (7x+26)°

We need to determine the measure of each angle.

<u>Measure of angles:</u>

From the figure, it is obvious that the two angles are vertically opposite angles.

By definition, we know that, the vertically opposite angles are always equal.

To determine the measure of each angle, we shall first find the value of x.

Thus, we have,

11x-26=7x+26

 4x-26=26

        4x=52

          x=13

Thus, the value of x is 13

Now, substituting x=13 in the angle (11x-26)°, we get,

(11(13)-26)^{\circ}=(143-26)^{\circ}

                    =117^{\circ}

The measure of the angle is 117°

Similarly, substituting x=13 in the angle (7x+26)°, we get,

(7x+26)^{\circ}=(7(13)+26)^{\circ}

               =117^{\circ}

The measure of the angle is 117°

Hence, the measure of each angle is 117°

4. Which of the following lines is perpendicular to y = -2X + 8?
Alenkinab [10]

For this case we have to by definition, if two lines are perpendicular then the product of its slopes is -1.

That is to say:

m_ {1} * m_ {2} = - 1

We have the following equation:

y = -2x + 8

So:

m_ {1} = - 2

Thus:

m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {m_ {1}}\\m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {- 2}\\m = \frac {1}{2}

Thus, a line perpendicular to the given line must have slope m = \frac {1} {2}.

Option A:

x + 2y = 8\\2y = -x + 8\\y = - \frac {1} {2} x + 4

It is not perpendicular!

Option B:

x-2y = 6\\2y = x-6\\y = \frac {1} {2} x-3

If it is perpendicular!

Option C:

2x + y = 4\\y = -2x + 4

It is not perpendicular!

Option D:

2x-y = 1\\y = 2x-1

It is not perpendicular!

The correct option is option B

10% of what number is 78?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: x = 780

Step-by-step explanation: Well <u><em>percent</em></u> means <em>over 100</em> so we can set up an equation for this problem by reading it from left to right.

So we know that <u><em>10%</em></u> means <em>10/100</em>, <u><em>of</em></u> means times, <em><u>what</u></em> <em><u>number</u></em> means <em>x</em>, <u><em>is</em></u> means <em>equals</em>, and <em><u>12</u></em> means 12.

Notice that <em>10/100</em> can be reduced to 1/10.

So rewriting our problem we have <em>X/10 = 78</em>.

To get rid of the fraction, we multiply both sides of the equation by 10 and we have <em>x = 780</em>. So, 10% of 780 is 78.

Now let's check our answer back in the original problem to see if it makes sense.

We have <em>10% of 780 is 78</em>. Well we know that 100% of of 780 would be 780 so 10% of 780 should be alot less than 780 so 78 seems to make sense.
