Lets round each distance to the nearest tens place, and then add them up to get an estimate. 143 rounds down to 140, 138 rounds up to 140, and 141 rounds down to 140. So: 140 + 140 + 140 = 420 miles
It is simplified to -1/15
The answer is the second option, <ACE = <ECA.
This is because C is in the middle of both, so it's referring to the same angle. The other options are all comparing different angles, that aren't congruent, so they're incorrect.
Your answer would be the last option: What will happen to the individual sections cannot be determined, but the size of the two sections together increases.
This is because angles on a straight line add to 180°, so if angle C decreases, angles A and B must collectively increase to make up for the loss. For example, if C = 20° and it decreases to 15°, A + B + C would equal 175° and so A and B would need to increase to make it 180°.
The reason we can't determine what happens to the individual sections is that they could either both increase, or one could increase and one could decrease, as long as they collectively make up for the decreased angle.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
