The correct answer is: B. 47 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let A,B and C be the three angles

∠A = 8x+6

∠B = 7x-8

∠C = 5x+2

As we know that sum of angles of a triangle is 180°

Mathematically

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

(8x+6)+(7x-8)+(5x+2) = 180°

8x+6+7x-8+5x+2=180°

20x=180°

dividing both sides by 20

20x/20 = 180/20

x= 9

The angles will be:

∠A = 8x + 6 = 8(9)+6 = 72+6 =78°

∠B = 7x-8 = 7(9)-8 = 63-8 = 55°

∠C = 5x+2 = 5(9) +2 = 47°

The smallest angle is 47°

Hence,

The correct answer is: B. 47 degrees

Victoria bought a dress on 40% discount, and saved a massive $60. How much did the dress cost originally? How much did she pay f

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Answer: Original price = $150 Amount Paid = $90

Step-by-step explanation:

First we make a proportion 60/x = 40/100. When we cross multiply and divided to get x by itself we get $150 dollars. This is the original price of the dress. Now we take $150-$60 and we get $90. This is what Victoria paid for the dress after the 40% discount.

Hope this helps! :)
