Equilateral triangles have three equal angles, so we right away know that x=60º. Then, we just solve (3(60)-70)º, which is 110º, for the answer.
mike charges 100 dollars service charge plus 65 dollars per hour.
amy charges 40 dollars service charge plus 80 dollars per hour.
the cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * x.
the cost to repair from amy is 40 + 80 * x.
let x = 3 and you get:
the cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * 3 = 295 dollars.
the cost to repaid from amy is 40 + 80 * 3 = 280 dollars.
as long as the time to repair is 3 hours or less, the cost to repair will be cheaper from amy.
