Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of supplementary angles added together MUST equal 180. Therefore, as you are given two angles with the measures of (4x - 24) and 4(2x - 3), they must add together to equal 180. So, we get this equation:

(4x - 24) + 4(2x - 3) = 180

4x - 24 + 8x - 12 = 180 (we distributed 4(2x-3))

12x - 36 = 180

12x = 144

x = 12, -12

Therefore, x is 12 because -12 would mean that (4x-24) and 4(2x-3) are both negative, which is impossible for an angle measure.

A rectangle flower bed had a total area of 40 square yards. If it was 4 yards wide, how long was it?
Pie
Area=wide times long
area=40
4=wide

40=4 times long
divide both sides by 4
10=long


10 yd long

Which of the following is the statement below describing? If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is e
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

(C) Perpendicular bisector theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) Right angle theorem : The right angle theorem states that if two angles are supplementary and congruent, then these two angles are right angles.

(B) Converse of perpendicular bisector theorem: The converse of  perpendicular bisector theorem states that If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment, then it is on the perpendicular bisector of that segment.

(C) Perpendicular Bisector Theorem: The Perpendicular Bisector Theorem states that  If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.

(D) Pythagorean theorem: The Pythagorean theorem states that in the right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse of the triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides that is:

(Hypotenuse)^2=(Base)^2+(Perpendicular)^2

Since, the given statement is the statement of the Perpendicular bisector theorem, thus  option C is correct.

A line goes through the point (6,–2) and has a slope of –3.
Mama L [17]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3
(6,-2)...x = 6 and y = -2
sub and find b, the y int
-2 = -3(6) + b
-2 = -18 + b
-2 + 18 = b
16 = b
so ur equation for this line is : y = -3x + 16

(a,7)......so y = 7......" a "  is gonna be x

y = -3x + 16
7 = -3x + 16
7 - 16 = -3x
- 9 = -3x
-9/-3 = x
3 = x..........so " a " is gonna be 3 <===
