Answer:

  117

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the number of stamps Derek had at first. After he gave 1/9 of his stamps to Ahmad, Ahmad had (d -104) +(d/9). Derek had 4 times this number after giving away d/9 stamps:

  (d -d/9) = 4((d -104) +d/9)

  (8/9)d = 4d -416 +(4/9)d

  416 = (32/9)d . . . . add 416 -8/9d

  117 = d . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 9/32

Derek had 117 stamps at first.

_____

<em>Check</em>

1/9 of Derek's collection is 13 stamps. 104 less than Derek's collection is 13 stamps.

So, Ahmad started with 13 stamps and was given 13 stamps by Derek. Meanwhile, Derek started with 117 stamps and gave away 13, so ended with 104 stamps. That number (104) is 4 times Ahmad's new number (26), as it should be.

The_________states that the sum measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180​
serious [3.7K]

The Triangle sum theorem states that the sum measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degree

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

We know that,  

The Triangle Sum Theorem states that if you add all three interior angles, those are the angles inside the triangle, they would always add up to 180 degrees.

It is easy to remember that we add the three angle measurements to get 180 degrees because of the word sum in the name of the theorem. To make it short and sweet:

Consider a triangle with interior angles a, b, and c. Then we can say,

\angle a+\angle b+\angle c=180^{\circ}

The Triangle Sum Theorem is also called the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem or Angle Sum Theorem

If θ is a first-quadrant angle in standard position with P(u, v) = (3, 4), evaluate cos 2 θ . -7/25 -1/5 7/25
Grace [21]

Answer:

-7/25.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given point P we see that the hypotenuse =  √(3*2 + 4^2) = 5.

So cos  θ = 3/5

cos 2 θ =  2 cos^2 θ - 1

= 2 * (3/5)^2 -1

= -7/25.
