These two lines create vertical angles, which are congruent. That means angle z = 60 degrees. Since angle z and the angle represented by the expression 6x + 60 are supplementary (they are adjacent angles that add to equal 180 degrees), you can set up the following equation to find x:
6x + 60 + 60 = 180
6x + 120 = 180
6x = 60
x = 10
Answers:
x = 10
z = 60
Hello!
When multiply binomials together, we should use the FOIL method.
The FOIL method is an acronym for First, Outer, Inner, and Last.
First, let's set up the expression.
(7x - 1)(3x - 2)
Now, we can multiply in accordance with the FOIL method.
First: 7x · 3x = 21x²
Outer: 7x · -2 = -14x
Inner: -1 · 3x = -3x
Last: -1 · -2 = 2
Now, we simplify the inner terms.
21x² - 14x - 3x + 2
21x² - 17x + 2
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 21x² - 17x + 2.
3/2 We look for a number that goes into both 9 and 6 without leaving a remainder, and that number is 3
