Victor jogged 8 3/7 kilometers on monday and 7 4/6 kilometers o tuesday. what is the difference between these two distances?

16/21 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCD here is 42.  Thus, 8  3/7 km = 8  18/42 and 7  4/6 km = 7  28/42 km.

The difference in the two distances is

 8  18/42  km

- 7   28/42 km

or:

 7  60/42 km         Here I have borrowed 42/42 from that 8.

- 7  28/42 km

     32/42 km,   or 16/21 km

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
