Answer:

He is incorrect. Ray RO and ray RL are not opposite rays.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles are linear pair if they are supplementary and share a leg.

∠ORP and ∠LRP are not supplementary, because ray RO and ray RL are not opposite rays.

Therefore, ∠ORP and ∠LRP are not linear pair.

correct me if this is wrong

Fifteen more than twice the hours Carla worked last week is the same as three times the hours she worked this week decreased by

lapo4ka [179]

2x-15=3(x-15)
2x-15=3x-45
2x+30=3x
30=x

Let's check this work!

2(30)-15=3(30-15)
60-15=3(15)
45=45

She worked 45 hours each week

*the reason it is 2x-15 and not 15+2x is because "more than" is considered a "turn around word" meaning it is the opposite

Answer:

Reflection

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the transformation that yielded figure B from figure A

Looking at the plot, we can see that we have the origin as the center of transformation

The kind of transformation however is reflection

The shape A was reflected about the origin or the point (0,0) to give shape B

Write the equation of a line that meets all the following requirements:

LuckyWell [14K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x + y = 5
y = -x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start with the point-slope form of the equation for a line. To meet the given requirements, we can use a point of (5, 0) and a slope of -1. Then the equation in that form is ...

y -0 = -1(x -5)

Simplifying gives the slope-intercept form:

y = -x +5 . . . . . . . use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses

Adding x to both sides gives the standard form:

x + y = 5

<em>Explanation</em>

We know the line has the required intercept and slope because we chose those values to put into the point-slope form. Conversion from one form to another made use of the rules of equality, the additive identity element (y-0=y), and the distributive property.
