Answer:

  D. m∠a=139°, m∠b=23°, m∠c=18°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a multiple-choice question that can be answered simply by considering the reasonableness of the answers.

__

The expression for ∠a suggests it will be by far the largest of the angles, eliminating choices A and C.

No angle in a triangle is more than 180°, eliminating choice B.

The expression for ∠b suggests it will have a measure less than 31°. This confirms choice D as the correct one.

  m∠a=139°, m∠b=23°, m∠c=18°

__

If you want to work the problem, you use the fact that the sum of angles is 180°

  ∠a +∠b +∠c = 180°

  (40x -21)° +(31 -2x)° +(x +14)° = 180°

  39x +24 = 180 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, collect terms

  39x = 156 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 24

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 39

Then the measures of the angles are ...

  ∠a = (40×4 -21)° = 139°

  ∠b = (31 -2×4)° = 23°

  ∠c = (4 +14)° = 18°

Joel spends 272727 more minutes playing soccer after school on Tuesday than he did on Monday. He still exercises for a total of
Nookie1986 [14]

Joel spent 72.5% of his time exercising after playing soccer on Tuesda

<h3>How to determine the percentage?</h3>

The given parameters are

Minutes spent on Tuesday = 27 more minutes than Monday

Total minutes spend = 60

This means that

Tuesday = Monday + 27

Monday + Tuesday = 60

Make Monday the subject in Tuesday = Monday + 27

Monday = Tuesday - 27

Substitute Monday = Tuesday - 27 in Monday + Tuesday = 60

Tuesday - 27 + Tuesday = 60

Evaluate

2 * Tuesday = 87

Divide by 2

Tuesday = 43.5

The percentage of time spent exercising on Tuesday is then calculated as

Percentage = 43.5/60 * 100%

Evaluate the expression

Percentage = 72.5%

Hence, Joel spent 72.5% of his time exercising after playing soccer on Tuesday
