Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, thus

BD = AC, that is

2x - 12 = x + 5 ( subtract x from both sides )

x - 12 = 5 ( add 12 to both sides )

x = 17

erik [133]

Answer:

The average U.S. citizen throws away about 133.8 pounds of garbage a month.

Step-by-step explanation:

First take the total amount of trash thrown away in a year (1,606), and divide it by the number of months in a year (12).

1,606 / 12 = 133.833333

You would get 133.833333 and would round it to the nearest tenth and get 133.8.

PKE is a triangle and its interior angles therefor sum to 180deg:

$P+K+E=180$
$90+(x+6)+2x=180$
$96+3x=180$
$3x=84$
$x=\frac{84}{3}=28deg$
