Answer:

x = 21°

y = 29°

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Solving for x

Note that:

(3x - 3)° and 60° are Alternate interior angles, and alternate interior angles are equal to each other, hence:

3x - 3 = 60° (Alternate interior angles)

Add 3 to both sides

3x - 3 +3 = 60 + 3

3x = 63°

x = 63°/3

x = 21°

b) Solving for y

Notes that:

(3x - 3)° and (4y + 4)° are Consecutive interior angles and the sum consecutive interior angles is 180°

3x - 3 + 4y + 4 = 180°

3x + 4y - 3 + 4 = 180°

3x + 4y + 1 = 180°

Note that x = 21

Hence

3(21) + 4y + 1 = 180°

63 + 1 + 4y = 180°

64 + 4y = 180°

Subtract 64 from both sides

64 - 64 + 4y = 180° - 64

4y = 116°

y = 116/4

y => 29°

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-3,4) and (4,-1)
Serhud [2]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{5}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 1)

m = \frac{-1-4}{4+3} = - \frac{5}{7}

I need help!<br><br>solve for x​
Volgvan

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's a fun fact, all of those angles actually add up to 360 degrees!

How do we know this? Well if you were to draw a small arc between each of the lines, you would see that the arc would end up making a circle. And remember, circles have 360 degrees!

Now we can do some basic algebra. Add up all the angles and set that equal to 360.

(2x) + (x) + (3x + 20) + (2x+20) = 360.

8x + 40 = 360

8x = 320

x = 40

Hope this helped!
