So you first have to change the first part into an improper fractions

So (9/4)*-8 Then you expand and you get (9*-8)/4

Then you get -72/4

The answer is -18

One copy of a new book by Amanda's favorite author cost $9.45. If a total of 2,740 copies of the book were sold on the first day

Arisa [49]

Without taking out the cost that would be given to the author and publisher it would be $25,893, you just multiply 9.45 by 2,740

One of the same-side exterior angles formed by two lines and a transversal is equal to 1/6 of the right angle and is 11 times smaller than the other angle. Then the lines are parallel

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that, One of the same-side exterior angles formed by two lines and a transversal is equal to 1/6 of the right angle and is 11 times smaller than the other angle.

We have to prove that the lines are parallel.

If they are parallel, sum of the described angles should be equal to 180 as they are same side exterior angles.

Now, the 1st angle will be 1/6 of right angle is given as:

$\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 1^{\text {st }} \text { angle }=\frac{1}{6} \times 90} \\\\ {\rightarrow 1^{\text {st }} \text { angle }=15 \text { degrees }}\end{array}$
