Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Heads: P + C = 24

C = 24 - P

Legs: 4P + 2C = 80

Substitute, from heads: 4P + 2 (24 - P) = 80

4P + 48 - 2P = 80

2P = 32

P = 16

C = 24-P = 8

====================

Check:

P + C = 16 + 8 = 24

4P + 2C = 4(16) + 2(8) = 64 + 16 = 80

In the diagram of movie theater seats, the incline of the floor, f, is parallel to the seats, s.

Answer:

16. x = 40

17. y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

16. Given that f is parallel to s, therefore by the corresponding theorem and linear pair theorem, <1 + 3x = 180°

60° + 3x = 180° (substitution)

3x = 180° - 60° (Subtraction property of equality)

3x = 120°

x = 120/3 (division property of equality)

x = 40

17. Since f and s are parallel, therefore,

m<1 = (5y - 7)° (alternate interior angles are congruent)

68° = 5y - 7 (substitution)

68 + 7 = 5y (addition property of equality)

75 = 5y

75/5 = y (division property of equality)

15 = y
