I’m pretty sore it’s c not sure tho
Answer:
b 8y + 5, hope I helped. have a nice day
Basically, you try to find 2 numbers that divide to 3/2. So, using trial and error, plug in numbers for x in this expression: x/24=3/2, and solve to find the number that makes it true. You end up getting 36/24=3/2. Hope that helps! :)
Hi there! :)

The two angles pictured are vertical angles, therefore:
8x - 6 = 6x + 12
Solve for x by subtracting 6x from both sides:
2x - 6 = 12
Add 6 to both sides:
2x = 18
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 9.
The sum of the three angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees. If the triangle is right, which means one of the angles measures 90 degrees, the other two angles should add up to 90 degrees. With this condition and the given above, x + 15 + 2x = 90. Solving for x in the equation gives x = 25. Substituting x to the given expression for the acute angles gives the measurements of 40 and 50 degrees. Thus, the smallest angle of the triangle is <em>40 degrees</em>.
