Answer:

x = -4

m<LMP = 77°

m<NMP = 103°

Step-by-step explanation:

Straight angles by definition have a total measure of 180°.

This means that m<LMP and m<NMP are 180° together.

Therefore m<LMP + m<NMP = 180°.

[substitution property]

(-16x + 13)° + (-20x + 23)° = 180°

[associative property of addition]

(-36x + 36)° = 180°

-36x + 36 = 180

–36 –36

-36x = 144

÷-36 ÷-36

x = -4

_________________

Since m<LMP = (-16x + 13)°.

Using substitution with x = -4:

m<LMP = (-16(-4) + 13)° = (64 + 13)° = 77°.

Since m<NMP = (-20x + 23)°.

Using substitution with x = -4:

m<NMP = (-20(-4) + 23)° = (80 + 23)° = 103°.

This is true because 77° + 103° = 180°.

Tom drank 1 1/4 quarts of water and his sister Jane drank 1.75 quarts of water. Write the amount that Jane drank using a

Andreyy89

Answer:

Jane drank 1 3/4 quarts of water.

Jane drank more water than Tom

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom drank = 1 1/4 quarts of water

Jane drank = 1.75 quarts of water

We have to write the amount of water Jane drank in fraction.

There are some steps to convert decimal into fraction.

Step 1:

Value is 1.75:

Put the 1 aside and just work on 0.75

Write down the decimal value divided by 1

Like, 0.75/1

Step 2:

Now multiply both the numerator and denominator by 100.

We will multiply the numerator and denominator by 100 because 1.75 has two values after the decimal.

0.75 *100/1*100

75/100

Step 3:

Simplify the fraction.

divide the fraction by 5.

=15/20

=3/4

Now bring back the 1: and the fraction will become.

1 3/4

Jane drank 1 3/4 quarts of water.

Now who drank more water?

<u>Jane drank more water than Tom</u>

<u>Reason:</u>

Tom drank 1 1/4 = 5/4

Jane drank 1 3/4 = 7/4

Both the fractions have same denominator, so the value with the greater numerator drank more water than the other.

Therefore Jane drank more water than Tom....

Square A is a scaled version of square B. The dimensions of square A are three times the dimensions of square B. The area of squ

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The side of square A is 30 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The dimensions of square A are three times the dimensions of square B.

The area of square A is 900 sq cm.

Side of square A = 3( side of square B)

Let the side of square B is b. So,

Side of square A, a = 3b

We know that, the area of square is side². So,

$(3b)^2=900\\\\9b^2=900\\\\b^2=100\\\\b=10\ cm$

Side of square A, a = 3(10) = 30 cm

Hence, the side of square A is 30 cm.

Andreyy89

A table is a arrangement of the data or the information. For the given table statement second, third and fifth are the correct statements.

Given information-

A four by four table in given for the survey of the 7th and 8th group students for the movie preference.

The first column has no label with entries drama, action, comedy, total.

The second column is labeled 7th with entries 11%, 25%, 14%, 50%.

The third column is labeled 8th with entries 15%, 19%, 16%, 50%.

The fourth column is labeled total with entries 26%, 44%, 30%, 100%.

<h3>Table </h3>

A table is a arrangement of the data or the information

Now look at the statement.

1) More 7th graders were surveyed than 8th graders- As both 7th grade and the 8th grade student surveyed are 50 percent. Thus the statement 1 is incorrect.

2) The marginal relative frequency for action movies is 44%-Total 7th grade students like the action movies are 25 percent. Total 8th grade students like the action movies are 19 percent. The sum of both is 44 percent. Thus this is correct statement.
3) The joint relative frequency for 8th graders who like comedy movies is 16%- From the table it can be said that the frequency of the 8th grade students likes the comedy movie is 16 percent. Thus this is a correct statement.
4) Most students prefer drama movies- The highest number of the movie preferred by the students is action movie. Thus this is an incorrect statement.
5) Half of the 7th graders prefer action movies- The 50 percent of the 7th grade is surveyed in which 25 percent like the action movie.25 is the half of the 50. Thus it is a correct statement.

Hence for the given table statement second, third and fifth are the correct statements.
