Answer:

  (c)  y=-1/2x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

The units of the problem need to be consistent. Here, it is convenient to use feet. 6 inches is 1/2 foot, so the level will decrease 1/2 ft for each hour. It starts at +12 ft, and goes down from there:

  y = -1/2x +12

Need t in degrees not just solve for t
Inessa [10]

An exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two opposite inside angles.

T + 31 = t + t-29

Simplify:

T + 31 = 2t -29

Add 29 to both sides:

T + 60 = 2t

Subtract 1t from both sides:

T = 60
