Answer:

  A  x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines AB and CD being perpendicular means the angles where they meet are all 90°. The diagonal line divides two of those 90° angles into two parts (each). The whole (90°) is the sum of the parts into which the angle has been divided.

The sum of angles 3 and 4 is 90°. Once you understand this relationship, you can write an equation based on the relationship. The equation can be solved in the usual way.

  (4x +4)° +26° = 90°

  4x = 60 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 30

  x = 15 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

A patrolman spends three times as many hours patrolling as she does completing paper work. If she works 36 hours per week, how m
fomenos

Answer:

27 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let her work "x" hours for paperwork

Since, patrolling amount of hours is THREE TIMES that,

Patrolling = 3x hours

Total Hours = 36

That is including paperhour work (x) and patrolling (3x). So we can setup an equation in x and solve for x first:

x + 3x = 36

4x = 36

x = 36/4

x = 9 hours

Amount of Hours for Patarolling = 3x hours = 3(9) = 27 hours

So, she spends 27 hours patrolling
