Ok so I heard this question a few times already and couldn't remember how it went so I decided to put my brain to the test, I used my algebra to use and complete it.

If the Earth were shrunk down to the size of a basketball (radius:4.69 inches) the Moon would be a tennis ball (radius: 1.2768 inches, to be exact) 23.5 feet away.

The Sun would be a 42.6-foot sphere (source) located 1.7 miles away.

The closest star, Proxima Centauri, would still be 463,151 miles away – almost twice the distance of the actual moon."

Solve for x !!!!!!!!
xeze [42]

Answer:

D) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

By remote interior angle property if a triangle, we have:

19x° + (18x - 4)° = 144°

(18x - 4 + 19x)° = 144°

(37x - 4)° = 144°

37x - 4 = 144

37x = 144 + 4

37x = 148

x = 148/37

x = 4
