Step-by-step explanation:
let ∠BCE = x then ∠ECD = 5x - 6 and
∠BCE + ∠ECD = ∠BCD, substitute values
x + 5x - 6 = 162, that is
6x - 6 = 162 ( add 6 to both sides )
6x = 168 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 28
Hence
∠BCE = x = 28°
∠ECD = 5x - 6 = (5 × 28) - 6 = 140 - 6 = 134°
Hence thirty two dollars , is the solution
Okay. So in order to solve this problem, we really have to try out each answer and divide it by 9. A is not correct, because it does not divide evenly. B works, but let's check the others. C and D do not work, but E also works as well. If you can have two answers, 504 and 882 are both exactly divisible by 9. The answers are B: 504 and E: 882.
BPD = 1/2(BD + CA)
BPD = 1/2(70 + 170)
BPD = 1/2(240)
BPD = 120
A full circle = 360 degrees
BC + AD = 360 - 70 - 170
BC+ AD = 360 - 240
BC + AD = 120
