5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15
-15 -15 subtract 15 from each side
5(2x - 8) = -30
÷5 ÷5 divide both sides by 5
2x - 8 = -6
+8 +8 add 8 to each side
2x=2
÷2 ÷2 divide both sides by 3
x = 1
Checking:
5(2(1)-8) + 15 = -15
5(-6) + 15 = -15
-30 + 15 = -15
-15 = -15 Correct! x=1

Answer:
D. 405
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you find the area of the swimming pool without the water. That is 9 x 9 = 81. Then you multiply the area (without water) by 5 to find the area with the water.
∡b is a vertical angle to ∡a and therefore a twin, and we know that ∡a = 120°, thus since ∡b = ∡a, ∡b = 120° as well.
a full circle has a total of 360°, ∡d and ∡c are vertical angles, namely two angles across from each other at a junction, and therefore ∡d = ∡c.
∡a + ∡b is 120° + 120° thus 240°, since a circle has a total of 360°, 360 - 240 = 120, so the other two angles pick up that slack and divide it among each other evenly, 120/2 = 60, so ∡d = ∡c = 60°.
