Answer:

a) x = 260

b) g = 218

c) z = 30

d) h = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) x-68=192

Predict a number; let's say x = 225

225-68=192\\157=192

Too low; try with a higher number; let's say x = 270

270-68=192\\202=192

Too high, we're closer.

x = 260

260-68=192\\192=192

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

b) g+33=251

let's say g = 230

230+33=251\\263=251

Too high. Try g = 221

221+33=251\\254=251

We're almost there. Let's try with g = 218

218+33=251\\251=251

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

c) 3z-16=74

Let's try with z = 15

3(15)-16=74\\45-16=74\\29=74

Too low; try a higher number. z = 30

3(30)-16=74\\90-16=74\\74=74

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

d) 15h+9=84

Let's try with h = 6

15(6)+9=84\\90+9=84\\99=84

Too high; let's try with h = 5

15(5)+9=84\\75+9=84\\84=84

Someone came into a store and stole 100 dollars from the register. The person returned 5 minutes later and purchased 70 dollars
Nataliya [291]
Think of it this way. Ignore for now that $100 was stolen.

The purchase of the $70 item for $100 cash with $30 change is a perfectly fair purchase. The store received $100 cash, and the store gave $70 worth of merchandise plus $30 cash.There was no loss to the store there.

The fact that $100 in cash was stolen earlier from cash register means the loss is $100. The legitimate transaction does not affect the loss.

If you have a hard time understanding the loss is $100, then think of it this way.
Reverse the order of the two happenings.

A person walked into a store and bought a $70 item with a $100 bill. He received $30 change. So far, there is no loss to the store. Everything is legit.

That customer later came back to the store and stole $100 from the cash register.

Here we see clearly that the loss is exactly $100. It is simply the $100 stolen from the cash register.

Please Help!! What is the next step in the proof? Choose the most logical approach.
marta [7]

Answer:

statement D is correct.

<em>Statement: ∠7 ≅ ∠6 and ∠8 ≅ ∠5</em>

<em>Reason: Vertical Angles Theorem</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

3 ≅ ∠7 and ∠4 ≅ ∠8

from statement 2 because they are corresponding angles.

∠8 ≅ ∠5

because its vertical angles

The vertical angles theorem is about angles that are opposite each other.

So,

∠4 ≅ ∠8 and ∠8 ≅ ∠5

which means

<h3> ∠4 ≅ ∠5 </h3>

Hence,

∠3 = ∠7

∠4 = ∠5

they are known as interior alternative angles.
