1) The measures of the opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, add up to 180.
That means that angle ROP and angle RQP are supplementary.
We can add them and set them equal to 180 so that we can solve for x first.
∠ROP + RQP = 180
x + 17 + 6x - 5 = 180
7x + 12 = 180
7x = 168
x = 24
Now use the 24 for x and solve for the measure of angle ROP.
∠ROP = x + 17
∠ROP = 24 + 17
∠ROP = 41
The answer is A
2) The answer is A.
Hope this helps :)
That is the simplest form
The answer is choice A.
In this problem, we are shrinking the poster by 1/4 of its size.
Which means you need to divide the sides by 4
For width:
For length:
Answer: 150 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
1] y - 3x = -8
[2] y + 9x = 4
-3x + y = -8 9x + y = 4
Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] y = -9x + 4
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] (-9x+4) - 3x = -8
[1] - 12x = -12
// Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] 12x = 12
[1] x = 1
// By now we know this much :
y = -9x+4
x = 1
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = -9(1)+4 = -5
{y,x} = {-5,1}
