Answer:

z = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for z:

(z + 4)/3 - 6 = (2 (5 - z))/3

Put each term in (z + 4)/3 - 6 over the common denominator 3: (z + 4)/3 - 6 = (z + 4)/3 - 18/3:

(z + 4)/3 - 18/3 = (2 (5 - z))/3

(z + 4)/3 - 18/3 = ((z + 4) - 18)/3:

(z - 18 + 4)/3 = (2 (5 - z))/3

Add like terms. 4 - 18 = -14:

(z - 14)/3 = (2 (5 - z))/3

Multiply both sides by 3:

(3 (z - 14))/3 = (3×2 (5 - z))/3

(3 (z - 14))/3 = 3/3×(z - 14) = z - 14:

z - 14 = (3×2 (5 - z))/3

(3×2 (5 - z))/3 = 3/3×2 (5 - z) = 2 (5 - z):

z - 14 = 2 (5 - z)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

z - 14 = 10 - 2 z

Add 2 z to both sides:

2 z + z - 14 = (2 z - 2 z) + 10

2 z - 2 z = 0:

2 z + z - 14 = 10

z + 2 z = 3 z:

3 z - 14 = 10

Add 14 to both sides:

3 z + (14 - 14) = 14 + 10

14 - 14 = 0:

3 z = 10 + 14

10 + 14 = 24:

3 z = 24

Divide both sides of 3 z = 24 by 3:

(3 z)/3 = 24/3

3/3 = 1:

z = 24/3

The gcd of 24 and 3 is 3, so 24/3 = (3×8)/(3×1) = 3/3×8 = 8:

Answer:  z = 8

Please help me, the attachment is below. (If you don't know the answer to the question please don't answer, thank you.)
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Paragraph Proof:

We are given that ∠1 ≅ ∠4. ∠1 and ∠4 are alternate exterior angles. Since they are congruent, by the Alternate Exterior Angles Converse, the two lines being cut by the transversal must be parallel. Then by the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem, ∠3 ≅ ∠2.

2-Column Proof

 Statements                                               Reasons:

1) \angle 1\cong \angle 4                                                    Given

2) \text{The two lines are parallel}                        Alternate Exterior Angles Converse

3) \angle 3\cong \angle 2                                                  Alternate Interior Angles Theorem

I would write a flowchart as well, but unfortunately, I never learned it that way.

Z1 and Z2 are vertical angles. Z2 has measure of 93° what is the measure of Z1? enter your answer in the box.
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

m∠Z1 = 93°

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical Angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross.

They are congruent (the same as each other).

Therefore, m∠Z1 = m∠Z2, so if  m∠Z2 = 93° then m∠Z1 = 93°
