Smaller Angle: 49 degrees

Bigger Angle: 131 degrees

Note that supplementary angles add up to be 180 degrees. Knowing this and the information provided in the question, we can use the following system of equations:

x + y = 180 (showing they both add up to 180)

x + 82 = y (to show one angle is 82 more than the other)

We can use the substitution method to solve. Since the second equation ends in "= y" we can substitute the value of it into y for the first equation.

x + y = 180; x + 82 = y ==> x + (x + 82) = 180

And now, solve for x:

x + (x + 82) = 180

x + x + 82 = 180 > combine like terms

2x + 82 = 180

2x = 98

x = 49

So now we have the value for one of the angles! Remembering that the other angle is 82 degrees bigger, dd 49 + 82, which equals 131.

So, our two angle values are 131 and 49! This is correct since both angle measures add up to be 180, which also makes them supplementary!

Match equivalent expressions

Solving (a):

$3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + 768$

The expression can be written as:

$3 \to 3*4^{0$ --- 0

$12 \to 3 * 4^{1$ ---- 1

$48 \to 3 * 4^{2$ --- 2

$192 \to 3 * 4^{3$ ---- 3

$768 \to 3 * 4^{4$ ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

$Term = 3 * 4^{n$ ---- n

So, the summation is:

$3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + 768 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 3 * 4^n$

Solving (b):

$4 + 32 + 256 + 2048 + 16384$

The expression can be written as:

$4 \to 4 * 8^0$ --- 0

$32 \to 4 * 8^1$ ---- 1

$256 \to 4 * 8^2$ --- 2

$2048 \to 4 * 8^3$ ---- 3

$16384 \to 4 * 8^4$ ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

$Term \to 4 * 8^n$ ---- n

So, the summation is:

$4 + 32 + 256 + 2048 + 16384 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 4 * 8^n$

Solving (c):

$2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162$

The expression can be written as:

$2 \to 2 * 3^0$ --- 0

$6 \to 2 * 3^1$ ---- 1

$18 \to 2 * 3^2$ --- 2

$54 \to 2 * 3^3$ ---- 3

$162 \to 2 * 3^4$ ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

$Term \to 2 * 3^n$ ---- n

So, the summation is:

$2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 2* 3^n$

Solving (d):

$3 + 15 + 75 + 375 + 1875$

The expression can be written as:

$3 \to 3 * 5^0$ --- 0

$15 \to 3 * 5^1$ ---- 1

$75 \to 3 * 5^2$ --- 2

$375 \to 3 * 5^3$ ---- 3

$1875 \to 3 * 5^4$ ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

$Term \to 3 * 5^n$ ---- n

So, the summation is:

$3 + 15 + 75 + 375 + 1875 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 3* 5^n$

I know y= 40 but what is x ?

puteri [66]

Answer:

x = 67; y = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

You are correct with y. Angles y + 23 and 63 are vertical, so they are congruent. That gives you y + 23 = 63, which gives y = 40.

To find x, look at angles 2x - 17 and 63.

They are adjacent angles whose outside rays lie on a line. Angles like these are called a linear pair, and they are supplementary. That means their measures add up to 180 deg.

2x - 17 + 63 = 180

2x + 46 = 180

2x = 134

x = 67

A recipe calls for 5 deciliters of water and 236 milliliters of milk. How many milliliters of liquid does the recipe call for in

olya-2409 [2.1K]

1 deciliter is one-tenth of a liter and 1 milliliter is one-thousandth of a liter.
So: 1 liter = 10 deciliter = 100 centiliter = 1000 milliliter

This means that 1 deciliter is equal to 100 milliliters.
Based on the above:

5 deciliters = 500 milliliters
500+236 = 736

The recipe calls for 736 milliliters of liquid in total.
