Answer:
(8x + 1)° + ( 4x+11)° = 180° (linear pair )
8x +1 + 4x +11 = 180
8x + 4x + 1 + 11 = 180
12x + 12 = 180
12x = 180 - 12
12x = 168
x= 168/12
x = 14

Answer: Choice D) 31.2 miles</h3>
This value is approximate.
============================================================
Explanation:
Let's focus on the 48 degree angle. This angle combines with angle ABC to form a 90 degree angle. This means angle ABC is 90-48 = 42 degrees. Or in short we can say angle B = 42 when focusing on triangle ABC.
Now let's move to the 17 degree angle. Add on the 90 degree angle and we can see that angle CAB, aka angle A, is 17+90 = 107 degrees.
Based on those two interior angles, angle C must be...
A+B+C = 180
107+42+C = 180
149+C = 180
C = 180-149
C = 31
----------------
To sum things up so far, we have these known properties of triangle ABC
- angle A = 107 degrees
- side c = side AB = 24 miles
- angle B = 42 degrees
- angle C = 31 degrees
Let's use the law of sines to find side b, which is opposite angle B. This will find the length of side AC (which is the distance from the storm to station A).
b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
b/sin(42) = 24/sin(31)
b = sin(42)*24/sin(31)
b = 31.1804803080182 which is approximate
b = 31.2 miles is the distance from the storm to station A
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
On the other hand we have that if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1. So:

The given line is:

So we have:

We find 

So, a line perpendicular to the one given is of the form:

We substitute the given point to find "b":

Finally we have:

In point-slope form we have:
