Answer:

2.5 or 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are a pair of non-adjacent angles formed by the intersection of two straight lines. In simple words, vertical angles are located across from one another in the corners of the "X" formed by two straight lines. They are also called vertically opposite angles as they are situated opposite to each other - in other words, separated by the crossing point of the two lines, and not by the lines themselves.

that also means that they are equal.

and so,

8x + 15 = 4x + 25

4x = 10

x = 10/4 = 5/2 = 2.5

Use Midpoint and Slope Formulas to complete the tables below.1. Find the midpoint of RP, given the coordinates R (5, 8) and P (3

poizon [28]

The midpoint formula for a segment is:

$x_m,y_{_m}=\frac{(x_1+x_2)}{2},\frac{(y_1+y_2)}{2}$

apply to points R and P

$\begin{gathered} x_m,y_m=\frac{(5+3)}{2},\frac{(8+6)}{2} \\ x_m,y_m=\frac{8}{2},\frac{14}{2} \\ x_m,y_m=(4,7) \end{gathered}$

using the definition of slope find the slope of the segment

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

apply to points R and P

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{8-6}{5-3} \\ m=\frac{2}{2} \\ m=1 \end{gathered}$

to lines are parallel when the slopes are the same

$\mleft\Vert m=1\mright?$

two lines are perpendicular when the product of the slopes is equal to -1

$\begin{gathered} m\cdot\perp m=-1 \\ 1\cdot\perp m=-1 \\ \perp m=-\frac{1}{1} \\ \perp m=-1 \end{gathered}$

Write an inequality for the given statement: The sum of x and 25 is less than 75.

Kaylis [27]

That statement would be best express by " x + 25 < 75 ". Since the statement says the sum of x and 25, thus, it will be x + 25. Then it also states that the sum is less than 75, so the best expression would be " < 75".
