The game will have an option for one or two players. If two players finish a level with the same amount of points, they will enter a bonus round. One way for players to earn points is to collect gems together as a team. Player 1 has 65 points and gains 5 points for every gem collected together, and Player 2 has 80 points and gains 5 points for every gem collected together. 1.)Write an equation to represent the number of gems, x, the players collect together.
2.)How many gems must they collect together to have the same amount of points?

step-by-step explanation:

this is not possible to solve with the info given.   you need at least an one angle somewhere.

answer: (c) m∠qpo + (2x + 16)° = 180°

step-by-step explanation:

the opposite angles of a quadrilateral are supplementary.

so, ∠o + ∠q = 180°   and   ∠p + ∠r = 180°

since ∠r = 2x + 16°, we can use substitution as follows:

∠p + ∠r = 180°

∠p + (2x + 16)° = 180°

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct.   we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306.   this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395.   answer c is correct.
