Answer:
x = 6
∠B = 126
Step-by-step explanation:
∠A = ∠B through alternate interior angles
∠A = ∠B
8x + 78 = 2x + 114
8x - 2x = 114 - 78
6x = 36
x = 36 ÷ 6
x = 6
∠B = 2x + 114
2(6) + 114
12 + 114
= 126
Interesting question. Good to know for computer science.
Suppose you have a function like
an = 3x - 2 Try the first couple
a1 = 3(1) - 2
a1 = 3 - 2
a1 = 1
a2 = 3(2) - 2
a2 = 6 - 2
a2 = 4 So each term differs by 3
a2 - a1 = 3
an = a_(n - 1) + 3
a3 = a2 + 3
a3 = 4 + 3
a3 = 7
a4 = a3 + 3
a4 = 7 + 3
a4 = 10
a5 = a4+ 3
a5 = 10 + 3
a5 = 13
I'll do one more and then check it.
a6 = a5 + 3
a6 = 13 + 3
a6 = 16
a6 = 3x -2
a6 = 3*6 - 2
a6 = 18 - 2
a6 = 16 which checks.
So the general formula is
an = a_(n - 1) * k if you were multiplying or
an = a_(n - 1) + k if you were adding. The key thing is that you are working with the previous term.
Answer:
A. g=11
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find which choice makes the equation true. Let's plug in each answer choice.
A. g=11
26=7(11-9)+12
26= 7(2)+12 Solve inside the parentheses.
26= 14+12 Multiply 7 and 2.
26= 26 Add 14 and 12.
This answer must be correct, but let's check the other choices .
B. g=12
26=7(12-9)+12
26= 7(3)+12 Solve inside the parentheses.
26= 21+12 Multiply 7 and 3.
26≠33 Add 14 and 12.
This choice is not correct.
C. g= 13
26=7(13-9)+12
26= 7(4)+12 Solve inside the parentheses.
26= 28+12 Multiply 7 and 4.
26≠40 Add 28 and 12.
This is also not correct.
D. g= 14
26=7(14-9)+12
26= 7(5)+12 Solve inside the parentheses.
26= 35+12 Multiply 7 and 5.
26≠47 Add 35 and 12.
This choice is not correct either.
The value of g that make the expression 26=7(g-9)+12 a true statement is A. g=11.
QRS = DRS + QRD
167 = x + 143 + x + 30
167 = 2x + 173
-2x = 173 - 167
-2x = 6
x = 6/-2
x = -3
DRS = x + 143
= (-3) + 143
= 140
