For this case we have the following equation:

We must solve the equation by following the steps below:
We subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:

On the right side of the equation we have that different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

We add x to both sides of the equation:

We divide between 4 on both sides of the equation:

Thus, the correct option is option B
Answer:

Option B
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
The total of all the angles must be 180, since there is a straight line. We already know the 40 degree angle and the 90 degree angle, meaning that the remaining angle must be equal to 180 - 90 - 40, which is 50 degrees. Therefore, 50 = 7k + 8. 7k = 50-8 = 42, and k = 6.
Looking at the picture below (where the blue line is the height and the red line is equal to 43), we see that we can use the trigonometric ratio
tan.
tan38=x/43
which simplifies to
43*tan38=x
which gets us that
x=33.6 (approximately)
