Yep, this one seems sneaky and confusing. But it's not so bad if you remember the things you learned about parallel lines. (It can't be too tough ... I learned them
in 1954 and I still know how to use them.)
Look at the picture. Line ' l ' is parallel to line ' m ', and the horizontal line on the bottom (which is not labeled) is a transversal that cuts the parallel lines.
Did you learn that interior angles on the same side of the transversal are equal ?
I'm sure you did, although it may have a new name nowadays.
Anyway, with the help of that 'tool', angle-'B' and angle-'D' are equal. So . . .
(angle-A + angle-B) = 120
angle-B = 65
angle-A = 120 - 65 = <u>55 degrees</u>.
2: 2/3; 3: 3/4; 4: 1/4; 5: 1/3; 6: 1/4; 7: 4/5; 8: 5/6-3/6=1/3
p= 1/7
Alright, so first, you need to flip the equation.<span><span>It will turn into p+<span>4/7</span></span>=<span>5/7
Next, you want to get the variable by itself so you need to subtract 4/7 from both sides. 5/7-4/7=1/7
p=1/7</span></span>
Put in a equality
20 > (70/x)
then you solve
20x > 70
x>70/20
x> 3.5 you can not put part of a chair in a row so you round up
****You can put 4 or more chairs in a row****
