Answer:
x = 14.97
Step-by-step explanation:
a= 10 c=18
1. plug variables in for pythagorean theorem.
→
2.solve for b from pythagorean theorem.
→
-100 -100
→
b = 14.9666295.....
3. Round variable b to the nearest hundreth assuming they expect that and change the variable to x since we were actually looking for x.
b=14.9666....→ b(estimated)= 14.97
x(estimated)=14.97

So, I came up with something like this. I didn't find the final equation algebraically, but simply "figured it out". And I'm not sure how much "correct" this solution is, but it seems to work.
Answer:
If we want the greatest portion of pie, then you must choose the section with the greatest angle. Therefore, we must choose Section 2. But if we want the smallest portion of pie, then we must choose Section 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
From statement, we know that measure of the angle ABC is equal to the sum of measures of angles ABD (<em>section 1</em>) and DBC (<em>section 2</em>), that is to say:
(1)
If we know that ,
and
, then the value of
is:
Then, we check the angles of each section:
Section 1
Section 2
If we want the greatest portion of pie, then you must choose the section with the greatest angle. Therefore, we must choose Section 2. But if we want the smallest portion of pie, then we must choose Section 1.
