A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC below is equal to the measure of the exterior angle. Step 1: m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)
Step 2: m∠w − m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)
Step 3: Therefore, m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = m∠w + m∠z
Step 4: So, m∠x + m∠y = m∠w

In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected? (5 points)

Step 1; it should be m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of corresponding angles)

Step 2; it should be m∠w + m∠z = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

Step 1; it should be m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)

Step 2; it should be m∠w + m∠z = 90 degrees (alternate exterior angle)

Step 2; it should be m∠w + m∠z = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)

Step 2: m∠w − m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)  

We are adding the angles to form a straight line which is 180 degrees

Step 3: Therefore, m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = m∠w + m∠z

Step 4: So, m∠x + m∠y = m∠w

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
