Answer:

k = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Look for the missing factors that make all of the factors of 60k be squares.

60 = 2² × 3 × 5

The factors 3 and 5 each have an odd exponent (1), so those two factors must be part of k.

60k = 2² × 3 × 5 × k

is a perfect square when ...

3 × 5 = k = 15

For k = 15, 60k = 900 = 30²

What is the measurement of Angle O in parallelogram LMNO. When angle L is (x+40) and angle O is (3x)

I am Lyosha [343]

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent.

This means that the four angles of the parallelogram are:

$L = x+40,\quad M = 3x,\quad N = x+40,\quad O = 3x$

Moreover, the sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is 180(n-2). So, the sum of the interior angles of a parallelogram is 360.

This means

$L+M+N+O = 360 \iff 2(x+40)+2(3x) = 2x+80+6x = 360 \iff 8x = 280 \iff x = 35$

And since $O=3x$ , we have $O=3\cdot 35=105$

Yes it is :)

If there is an outlier on the lower end of the graph the mean will go down. If there is an outlier at the higher end of the graph the mean will go up.
