Let X be the variable used to represent the expression of the total number of books that Mario has read.
We used 4X to represent "four times the number of books". Then we add -2 to interpret the words "for two less than".
Therefore, we have an expression of 4X-2 for the total number of books that Mario has read.
Answer:
m∠WXY+m∠ZXY=m∠WXZ
Step-by-step explanation:
You don't know the angles to be congruent (equal measures), complementary (measures add to 90 deg), or supplementary (measures add to 180 deg); all you know is that they are adjacent, so the sum of the measures of the two smaller angles equals the measure of the larger outer angle.
Answer: m∠WXY+m∠ZXY=m∠WXZ
