Answer:

x - 15 ÷ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it wants you to find the half of your answer after you find the difference, be sure to leave the two at the end of your equation. With that said, let's move into finding out what "the difference of a number and fifteen is". Whenever they tell you 'a number', it means they want you to put a variable, such as x, since you do not know the number and it could be any number. Now, the "difference" of something usually means...you guessed it, subtraction! Now that you've decoded your equation, you now know it means that x - 15 is the first part, and you can now put the one half right after it.

If this is confusing, I can explain further. :D

<2 and <6 are right angles by the definition of perpendicular lines.
Since corresponding angles are congruent, m || n.

11.
In a triangle, the measures of the three angles add to 180 degrees.
If one angle is a right angle, then that angle measures 90 degrees. The other two angle measures plus 90 degrees add to 180 degrees, so the other two angle measures add to 90 degrees. In a right triangle there is a right angle and two other angles that are complementary.

Now look at your problem.
One angle is a right angle.
The other two angles are complementary, so their measures add to 90 deg.

8x + 2 + 9x + 3 = 90

17x + 5 = 90

17x = 85

x = 5

So yeah can anyone help me out be a tone
Brut [27]

Answer:

p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-3( 2+4p) + 7 = 49

Subtract 7 from each side

-3( 2+4p) + 7 -7= 49-7

-3( 2+4p)  = 42

Divide by -3

-3( 2+4p) /-3 = 42/-3

( 2+4p)  = -14

Subtract 2 from each side

2+4p-2 = -14-2

4p = -16

Divide by 4

4p/4 = -16/4

p = -4
