96÷2=48
63-48=15

So Sam should give Peter 15 of his stamps so that Peter will have twice as many stamps as him.

Answer:

  • Sam must give Peter <u>10 stamps</u> so that Peter has twice as much as him.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although the exercise could be done using equations, I will teach you a much simpler method to find the answer to this type of exercise: add the stamps of Sam and Peter:

  • 96 + 63 = 159

Since one must have twice the other, you will have to divide the total value into 3 (then two parts will correspond to Peter and 1 one to Sam)

  •  159/3 = 53

With this value, <u>Sam must have only 53 stamps and give the rest to Peter, and since Sam has 63 stamps, he will have to give Peter 10, with which Peter will have 106 stamps, which is double 53</u>.

Answer: JG= 12.
Explantation: Since it is a parallelogram, we know that EJ and JG are congruent (equal). Therefore, we set EJ and JG as an inequality. (3w = w + 8) We solve for W and get w=4. Plug in 4 into the JG equation (4 + 8). The answer would be 12.

L || m

Answer:

c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The lines l and m are parallel lines.

The parallel lines cut two transverse lines. Here we can use the properties of transverse and find the incorrect statements.

a.  m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠3 + m∠4

Here m∠1 and m∠2 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

m∠3 and  m∠4 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

Therefore, the statement is true.

b. m∠1 + m∠5 = m∠3 + m∠4

m∠1 + m∠5 = 180 same side of the adjacent angles.

m∠3 + m∠4 = 180, supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

Therefore, the statement is true.

Now let's check c.

m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6

We can cancel out m∠6, we get

m∠1 = m∠4 which  is not true

Now let's check d.

m∠3 + m∠4 = m∠7 + m∠4

We can cancel out m∠4, we get

m∠3 = m∠7, alternative interior angles are equal.

It is true.

Therefore, answer is c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6
