Option B. 55° is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

"The sum of interior angles of a triangle is always 180°"

Given

m∠A=(3x+1)°

m∠B=(2x-1)°

m∠C = 40°

We know that

m∠A+m∠B+m∠C=180°

Putting the values of angles

$(3x+1) +(2x-1) +40 = 180\\3x+1+2x-1+40 = 180\\5x+40=180\\$

Subtracting 40 from both sides

$5x+40-40=180-40\\5x=140$

Dividing both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{140}{5}\\x=28$

We have to find Angle B,

m∠B = 2x-1 = 2(28)-1 = 56-1 = 55°

Hence,

m∠B=55°

Option B. 55° is the correct answer

Penelope determined the solutions of the quadratic function by completing the square. F(x) = 4x2 8x 1 –1 = 4x2 8x –1 = 4(x2 2x)

Ymorist [56]

By solving the quadratic equation using completing the square method we got that Penelope should have added 4 to both sides instead of adding 1.

<h3>What is quadratic equation ?</h3>

Any equation of the form $ax^2+bx+c=0$ where x is variable and a, b, and c are any real numbers where a ≠ 0 is called quadratic equation .

Given work of Penelope is

$\begin{aligned}&f(x)=4 x^{2}+8 x+1 \\&-1=4 x^{2}+8 x \\&-1=4\left(x^{2}+2 x\right) \\&-1+1=4\left(x^{2}+2 x+1\right) \\&0=4(x+2)^{2} \\&0=(x+2)^{2} \\&0=x+2 \\&-2=x\end{aligned}$

Now we can see that Penelope determined the solutions of the quadratic function by completing the square. so he must have been done as following

$\begin{aligned}&f(x)=4 x^{2}+8 x+1 \\&-1=4 x^{2}+8 x \\&-1=4\left(x^{2}+2 x\right) \\&-1+4=4\left(x^{2}+2 x+1\right) \\&3=4(x+2)^{2} \\&\frac{3}{4} =x+2)^{2} \\&\frac{\pm\sqrt3}{2} =x+2 \\&\frac{-2\pm\sqrt3}{2} =x\end{aligned}$

By solving the quadratic equation using completing the square method we got that Penelope should have added 4 to both sides instead of adding 1.

Write in the missing numbers.<br> ordering intergers

Illusion [34]

Based on the definition of integers, ordering them would depend on if they are negative, positive, or have a zero value.

<h3>How are integers ordered?</h3><h3 />

Integers are whole numbers such as 1, 15, and 55. There are no decimals and they do not come in the form of fractions.

Integers can be negative or positive. Positive integers are always higher than negative integers. For instance, 1 is more than -500,000.

If both integers are negative, the larger looking number is considered smaller. For instance, -5 is more than -55. For positive integers, this is the reverse with larger looking numbers being larger.

An example of the correct order of intergers based on this dataset (1, 52, -800, 86, 5, and -4) is:

= -800, -4, 1, 5, 52, 86
