Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
p+1 +8 = 8p+16
p+9 = 8p+16
9-16 = 8p-p
-7=7p
-7/7 =p
-1=p
Supplementary means that the angles have to add up to 180, so you have your equation.
180=5x+17x-18
198=22x
x=9
Then to find the measures of the angles, you plug x back in.
m∠ABD=5(9)=45 degrees
m∠BDE=17(9)-18=153-18=135 degrees
15% of 12 is 1.8
