Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the type of angles

The given angles are adjacent and form a straight line. Therefore, they are supplementary angles.

Step 2: Recall the property of supplementary angles

Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees.

Step 3: Set up the equation

Let \( j \) be the unknown angle. The equation is: \[ 69^\circ + 26^\circ + j = 180^\circ \]

Step 4: Solve for \( j \)

Combine the known angles: \[ 69^\circ + 26^\circ = 95^\circ \] Subtract from 180 degrees to find \( j \): \[ j = 180^\circ - 95^\circ = 85^\circ \]

Final Answer

The value of \( j \) is \( 85^\circ \).

A monologue is a long speech by one actor in a play or movie, or as part of a theatrical or broadcast program. Let's pretend you are the main character in your own play. In the play, you are getting ready to take your best friend to a play. The only problem is, your friend has never been to a theatre in their life and sometimes embarrasses you in public. Please read pages 12 and 13* in your TEXT BOOK and write a monologue (2 or 3 paragraphs in your own character's voice) explaining to your best friend how they should behave when you go to the show. Feel free to make up any scenarios you'd like. Have fun with this! Be specific.

Consider this quotient. [ left(x^3-8 x+6right) divleft(x^2-2 x+1right) ] Use long division to rewrite the quotient in an equivalent form as (q(x)+fracr(x)b(x)), where (q(x)) is the quotient, (r(x)) is the remainder, and (b(x)) is the divisor.
