Information Given:
-----------------------------------------------
ON = 7x - 9
LM = 6x + 4
MN = x - 7
OL = 2y - 7
-----------------------------------------------
Since it is a parallelogram:
-----------------------------------------------
ON = LM and
MN = OL
-----------------------------------------------
ON = LM:
-----------------------------------------------
7x - 9 = 6x + 4
-----------------------------------------------
Subtract 6x from both sides:
-----------------------------------------------
x - 9 = 4
-----------------------------------------------
Add 9 to both sides:
-----------------------------------------------
x = 13
-----------------------------------------------
MN = OL:
-----------------------------------------------
x - 7 = 2y - 7
-----------------------------------------------
Sub x = 13:
-----------------------------------------------
13 - 7 = 2y - 7
-----------------------------------------------
Simplify:
-----------------------------------------------
6 = 2y - 7
-----------------------------------------------
Add 7 on both sides:
-----------------------------------------------
13 = 2y
-----------------------------------------------
Divide by 2:
-----------------------------------------------
y = 13/2
-----------------------------------------------
Answer: x = 13, y = 13/2 (Answer D)
-----------------------------------------------
Answer: y=66

If you have a quadratic equation in the form ax^2+bx+c
Step 1) Determine the product of AC (the coefficients in a quadratic equation)
Step 2) Determine what factors of a⋅ca⋅c sum to bb
Step 3) "ungroup" the middle term to become the sum of the factors found in step 2
Step 4) group the pairs.
Divide 2,800 by 25 which equals 112, there are 112 rows in total
Answer:
180, 180, 148, 180, 148
Step-by-step explanation:
The two rules in play here are ...
- the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°
- the angles of a linear pair are supplementary (they total 180°)
__
The first of these rules answers the first two questions:
- interior angles total 180°
- angles 1, 3, 4 total 180°
We can subtract the measure of angle 1 from both sides of the previous equation to find the sum of the remaining two angles.
- angles 3 and 4 total 148°
The second rule answers the next question:
- angles 1 and 2 total 180°
As before, subtracting the value of angle 1 from both sides of the equation gives ...
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Of course, the subtraction property of equality comes into play, also. For some unknown, X, you have (in both cases) ...
X + 32° = 180°
X +32° -32° = 180° -32° . . . . . . subtraction property of equality
X = 148° . . . . . . . . simplify
In the first case, X is the sum of angles 3 and 4. In the second case, X is angle 2 only.
