<h3>
Answer: 35 (choice C)</h3>
=============================================
Explanation:
For any triangle, the three interior angles always add to 180.
D+E+F = 180
(7b+1) + (2b+1) + (b+8) = 180
(7b+2b+b) + (1+1+8) = 180
10b+10 = 180
10b = 180-10
10b = 170
b = 170/10
b = 17
Use this value of b to find the three angle measures
- D = 7b+1 = 7*17+1 = 119+1 = 120
- E = 2b+1 = 2*17+1 = 34+1 = 35 degrees
- F = b+8 = 17+8 = 25
As a check,
D+E+F = 120+35+25 = 120+60 = 180
which helps confirm the correct answers.
Answer:
X= 15
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 5 on x/5 and 9
divide 3 and 45
x=15
Answer:Robert's minimum age is 11 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent George's age.
Let y represent Edward's age.
Let z represent Robert's age.
George is twice as old as Edward. It means that
x = 2y
Edward's age exceeds Robert's age by 4 years. It means that
z = y - 4
If the sum of the three ages is at least 56 years, it means that
x + y + z ≥ 56 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 2y and z = y - 4 into equation 1, it becomes
2y + y + y - 4 ≥ 56
4y - 4 ≥ 56
4y ≥ 56 + 4
y ≥ 60/4
y ≥ 15
z = y - 4 = 15 - 4
z ≥ 11
-9(2)+4=-16 you do -9 times 2 which is -18 then you subtract that to 4 which you get -16. hope this helps!
