Answer:
<A = 35 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
<A = x
<B = 2x
<C = 2x + 5
X + 2x + 2x + 5 = 180 degrees
5x + 5 = 180
5x = 180 -5
x = 175/5
x = 35
Y = -2/3x + 7.....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3....flip it making it -3/2.....change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)....x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==
So, you basically plug the values into the formula you have been given. D divided by T gives you the average speed.
We know the distance D is 145 miles and the Time T is 2.5 hours.
So, 145/2.5=58
Therefore, the cars average speed was 58 miles / hour
