Hi there! The answer is A. x = 12

The angles (taken together) are complementary angles: the sum of the angles is 90 degrees. When we know this, we can set up and solve an equation.

(3x + 6) + 48 = 90
Work out the parenthesis

3x + 6 + 48 = 90
Collect terms

3x + 54 = 90
Subtract  54

3x = 36
Divide by 3

x = 36 / 3 = 12
Therefore, the solution for x, gives x = 12. A is the correct answer.

Hello there, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

Short answer: A. x = 12

Why?

This type of angle is called a complementary angle, where two acute angles add up to a 90° angle, (a right angle). Substitute x for 12 in the equation shown. (3 * 12 + 6) Now, do the appropriate math to solve. (3 * 12 = 36) Add. (36 + 6 = 42) To check if this is right, we have to add by the known angle, (48), and make sure it adds up to 90. (42 + 48 = 90) x = 12

Hope this helped you! ♥

9. Which point of view is most likely to be uni eliable in a story?
QveST [7]

This question includes some misspelled words; here is the correct question:

Which point of view is most likely to be unreliable in a story?

All points of view in a story are equally reliable.

The first person narrator is most likely to be unreliable.

All points of view in a story are equally unreliable.

The third-person point of view is most likely to be unreliable.

The correct answer is The first-person narrator is most likely to be unreliable.

Explanation:

In a narrative text, an unreliable narrator implies the narrator lies on purpose to the reader, or his/her version of the story is not completely accurate. This feature of narration occurs mainly if the story, novel, etc. includes a first-person narrator. This is because in a first-person narrator, the thoughts, feelings, and point of view of one of the characters prevail, and this causes the events told are subjective and therefore more likely to be inaccurate. Also, this does not occur if there is a third-person narrator because in this case the narrator acts as an observer and this makes it more objective.

If ABC = ADC, which is NOT true by CPCTC ?
sdas [7]
We cannot use CPCTC to show that BE is congruent to DE.

CPCTC refers to the angles and sides of two congruent triangles being congruent to their corresponding pieces.  The height of a triangle is not one of the given sides that counts in this.
