1. D
2. A
3. C
Question 2 MIGHT be D, but I think it's A
Answers:
- x = 11
- angle RQS = 106 degrees
- angle SQT = 74 degrees
===========================================================
Explanation:
Straight angles are always 180 degrees in measure.
The two smaller angles shown add up to 180
(angle RQS) + (angle SQT) = angle RQT
(9x+7) + (6x+8) = 180
(9x+6x) + (7+8) = 180
15x+15 = 180
15x = 180-15
15x = 165
x = 165/15
x = 11
From here, we then know that,
- angle RQS = 9x+7 = 9*11+7 = 99+7 = 106 degrees
- angle SQT = 6x+8 = 6*11+8 = 66+8 = 74 degrees
Note how the two results add to 106+74 = 180 to help confirm the answers.
These are the two answers you could get
The equation which represents the people that want to visit the museum and the exhibit is 8n+5n.
As you can see, the variable n is present in both terms 8n and 5n of the equation, so we can now factor the equation. You create parenthesis in which you put inside 8+5 and then you throw the variable n outside the parenthesis, and you get at last:
8n + 5n = (8+5)n
Hope this helps! :D
