Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

19x and its vertical angle are equal. Lets call that angle y

<y and 17x are same side interior angles. Same side interior angles add to 180 if the lines are parallel. Since l is parallel to m.

<y + 17x=180

We know that y and 19x are equal since they are vertical angles, so we can substitute this in.

19x+ 17x = 180

Combine like terms.

36x = 180

Divide each side by 36

36x/36 = 180/36

x = 5

Which of the following is NOT a rational number?

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

A <u>rational number</u> is a number that can be expressed as a fraction (the ratio of two integers).

<u>Integer</u>: A whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero.

To calculate if each radical can be expressed as a rational number, convert the decimals into rational numbers, then simplify:

$\sqrt{121}=\sqrt{11^2}=11=\dfrac{11}{1} \quad \leftarrow \textsf{rational}$

$\sqrt{12.1}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1210}{100}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{1210}}{\sqrt{100}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{121\cdot 10}}{10}=\dfrac{\sqrt{121}\sqrt{10}}{10}=\dfrac{11\sqrt{10}}{10} \leftarrow \textsf{not rational}$

$\sqrt{1.21}=\sqrt{\dfrac{121}{100}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{121}}{\sqrt{100}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{11^2}}{\sqrt{10^2}}=\dfrac{11}{10} \leftarrow \textsf{rational}$

$\sqrt{0.0121}=\sqrt{\dfrac{121}{10000}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{121}}{\sqrt{10000}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{11^2}}{\sqrt{100^2}}=\dfrac{11}{100} \leftarrow \textsf{rational}$
