Step-by-step explanation:
The opposite angles in a quadrilateral theorem states that when a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, the angles that are opposite each other are supplementary, their degree measures add up to 180 degrees. One can apply this here by using the sum of (<C) and (<A) to find the measure of the parameter (z). Then one can substitute in the value of (z) to find the measure of (<B). Finally, one can use the opposite angles in a quadrilateral theorem to find the measure of angle (<D) by using the sum of (<B) and (D).
Use the opposite angles in an inscribed quadrialteral theorem,
<A + <C = 180
Substitute,
14x - 7 + 8z = 180
Simplify,
22z - 7 = 180
Inverse operations,
22z = 187
z =
Simplify,
z =
Now substitute the value of (z) into the expression given for the measure of angle (<B)
<B = 10z
<B = 10()
Simplify,
<B = 85
Use the opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral theorem to find the measure of (<D)
<B + <D = 180
Substitute,
85 + <D = 180
Inverse operations,
<D = 95
One pound is equivalent to 16 ounces.
Thus, multiply 14 pounds with 16 to get the number of ounces.
14 pounds equals 224 ounces. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
