Answer:
∠ O = 61°, ∠ N = 119°
Step-by-step explanation:
In a parallelogram
Consecutive angles are supplementary
Opposite angles are congruent, thus
x + 2x - 3 = 180
3x - 3 = 180 ( add 3 to both sides )
3x = 183 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 61°
Thus
∠ O = ∠ M = x = 61°
∠ N = ∠ P = 2x - 3 = 2(61) - 3 = 122 - 3 = 119°
Answer: D. y = -4x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the y-intercept is when x is zero and the x intercept is when y is 0.
and to write in the equation in slope intercept form , you will need the slope and the intercept.
We will use the y and x intercepts to find the slope, by find the difference in their y coordinates and dividing it by the difference in their x coordinates.
y intercept: ( 0,4)
x intercept: (1,0)
y coordinates difference: 4 - 0 = 4
x coordinates difference: 0 - 1 = - 1
Slope: 4/-1 = -4
Since the slope is -4 and the the y intercept is 4 , the equation will be
y = -4x + 4
Answer:
a. 
b. x = 4 (see steps below)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the two polygons are similar, the sides are proportional to each other. Using a proportion, you can solve for 'x' using cross-multiplication and division:

Cross-multiply: 15(x + 3) = 21(x + 1)
Distribute: 15x + 45 = 21x + 21
Subtract '15x' from both sides: 15x + 45 - 15x = 21x + 21 - 15x or 45 = 6x + 21
Subtract '21' from both sides: 45 - 21 = 6x + 21 - 21 or 24 = 6x
Divide by 6 on both sides: 24/6 = 6x/6
Solve for x: x = 4
