Answer:
x= -7
Step-by-step explanation:
the labeled angles are alternate-interior angles which are congruent
we can solve for 'x' by creating this equation:
x+139 = 132
x = -7
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiples of 8 are 8,16,24,32 etc. and the multiples of 6 are 6,12,18,24,30, ect. The answer is 24 because it is the lowest multiple of 6 that crosses with multiples of 8.
Answer:
y = -5x - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear equations, or lines, that are perpendicular to each other have opposite reciprocals for the value of slope. For the given line, y = 1/5x - 2, the slope is 1/5 and the opposite reciprocal is -5.
Given the value of the slope and a given point on the second line, you can solve for 'b':
y = mx + b
8 = (-5)(-5) + b
8 = 25 + b
-17 = b
y = -5x - 17
-12 + 18 = 70 - 64 or(-12+18)+(6*12)-2
In order to find this out, let's convert both of them into percents. Since 17.5 is already a percent, we only have to convert 1/6 into a percent. To convert 1/6 into a percent, you have to divide the numerator by the denominator. If you do that, you will get 0.1666..... as a repeating decimal. Now, multiply the decimal by 100 or just move the decimal 2 spaces to the right to get the percent. If you do that, you will get 16.6%. Since it is a repeating decimal, you can round it to 16.7%. So, 17.5% is larger than 1/6.
Hope it helps :)
