Answer:
118°
Step-by-step explanation:
When two parallel lines are cut by a tranversal, then the exterior angles are supplimentary and the corresponding angles are congruent.
Therefore the angle above (15x - 17)° is also (5x + 17)° and the angle below (5x + 17)° is also (15x - 17)°.
Angles on a straight line adds up to 180°. So to know the measure of the larger angle we must both equations and equal it to 180° to find x in order to know the larger angle.
(5x + 17) + (15x - 17) = 180
5x + 15x + 17 - 17 = 180
20x = 180
20x/20 = 180/20
x = 9°
Nkw let's substitute x = 9 into the equations
5x + 17 =
5(9) + 17 =
= 62°
15x - 17 =
15(9) - 17 =
= 118°
Both equations should add up to be 180°.
Therefore the measure of the largest angle is 118°.
Answer:
36=x^2+5x
x^2+5x-36=0
(x+9)(x-4)
x= 4
x= -9
The Answer can be 4 or -9, see which option you have.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 200 bulbs will not be defective.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of defective bulbs to good bulbs produced each day is 2 to 10. This ratio can also be expressed as 1 to 5 by reducing to lowest terms.
The total ratio is the sum of the proportions.
Total ratio = 1 + 5 = 6
This means that if n bulbs is produced, the number of defective bulbs would be
1/6 × n
The number of non defective would be
5/6 × n
Since n = 240, then the number of bulbs that will not be defective is
5/6 × 240 = 200 bulbs
