Find the value of x in the given figure using properties of parallel lines.

x =42

Step-by-step explanation:

x and 138 are same side interior angles.  Same side interior angles are supplementary when the lines are parallel

x+138 = 180

x = 180-138

x =42

42°

Step-by-step explanation:

138° + x = 180°

180° - 138° = 42°

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
