A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC b

elow is equal to the measure of the exterior angle.
Step 1: m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)
Step 2: m∠p − m∠o = 90 degrees (alternate interior angles)
Step 3: Therefore, m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = m∠o + m∠p
Step 4: So, m∠m + m∠n = m∠p

In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected?
Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)
Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (adjacent angles)
Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (alternate exterior angles)
Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

The student made the mistake in Step 2.

It should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 (Supplementary angles)

If this is corrected, then, since m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 from Step 1,

we have,

m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = m∠o + m∠p which is Step 3.

Cancelling m∠o both sides, we get,

m∠m + m∠n = m∠p which is Step 4.

Answer:

$3.45

Step-by-step explanation:

$20.30 / 10  = $2.30 = 10%

$2.30 / 2  = $1.15 = 5%

$2.30 + $1.15 = $3.45 = 15%

Question 7 of 10<br> What is the solution to this equation
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 4(x+5) = 40 (Given)

x + 4x + 20 = 40 (Distribute the 4 into the x and 5)

5x + 20 = 40 (Add like terms)

5x = 20 (Subtract 20 on both sides)

x = 4 (Divide 5 on both sides)

Can someone please answer my question please answer it correctly please show work please I need it
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

3. 60 ÷ 5 = 12

12 × 3 = 36

7 3/5 hours = 7 hours and 36 minutes

7:36 - 30 = 7:06

7:06 - 42 = 6:24

6:24 ÷ 6 = 1:04

A. 1 1/15 hours

4. fractions are equivalent regardless of the negative sign placement

A. 4/-9 = -4/9

5. 3/2 = 12

4/2 = 16

12 × 16 = 192

C. 192 square feet

7. -2.9a + 6.8 + 4.4a - 7.3 (add -2.9a + 4.4a)

1.5a + 6.8 - 7.3 (subtract 6.8 - 7.3)

1.5a - 0.5

D. 1.5a - 0.5

8. 552.50 × 0.88 = 486.2

486.2 ÷ 7 = 69.457

B. m > 69.45

19. -1/6 + 2/3(9 - 3/4) - 1/2

2/3 × 9/1 = 18/3

2/3 × 3/4 = 6/12

-1/6 + 18/3 - 6/12 - 1/2

-1/6 + 36/6 - 6/12 - 1/2

35/6 - 6/12 - 1/2

70/12 - 6/12 - 1/2

64/12 - 1/2

64/12 - 6/12

B. 58/12
