This is the concept of algebra, we are required to find a number,x, such that 87 decreased by three times a number is great than one hundred and sixty-five.

Supposed the number is x, three times the number will be:
3*x=3x
thus;
87-3x≥165
-3x≥165-87
-3x≥78
dividing both sides by -3 we get:
(-3x)/(-3x)≥78/(-3)
x≤-26
This implies that the number is less than or equal to 26

Select the correct answer. Two exterior angles of a triangle measure 135° and 100°. What are the measures of the interior angles
ozzi

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

interior angle + exterior angle are supplementary

interior angle = 180° - exterior angle

⇒ interior angle = 180° - 135° = 45°

and interior angle = 180° - 100° = 80°

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

To find the third interior angle, subtract the sum of the 2 interior angles from 180

third interior angle = 180° - (45 + 80 )° = 180° - 125° = 55°

interior angles are 45°, 55° and 80°
