Answer:
<OPQ = 23 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Interior angles m∠PNO=(x+14) and m∠NOP=(x−1)
Exterior angle = m<OPQ = (5x-2)
The sum of interior angles is equal to the exterior angle, that is;
m∠PNO+m∠NOP = m<OPQ
x+14 + x-1 = 5x-2
2x + 13 = 5x-2
Collect like terms;
2x-5x = -2-13
-3x = -15
x = 15/3
x = 5
Get <OPQ
<OPQ = 5x - 2
<OPQ = 5(5)- 2
<OPQ = 25-2
<OPQ = 23 degrees
Answer:
3x +4 = -2x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The line that goes up to the right has a y-intercept of +4. This is where it crosses the y-axis. It's slope (rise/run) is 3/1 = 3, so its equation in slope-intercept form is ...
y = mx +b . . . . where m is the slope, b is the y-intercept
<u>y = 3x +4</u>
The other line has a negative slope and a y-intercept of -1. The slope of that line is rise/run = -2/1 = -2, so its equation is ...
<u>y = -2x -1</u>
__
The solution point will have the x-coordinate that is the solution of the equation ...
y = y
3x +4 = -2x -1 . . . . . . substituting the above expressions for y.
