Think of when If you cross two lines you get a point where they meet
A point is a solution.
So if the lines never cross, then they would have no point, or A, No Solution
Asssuming blanks are plus
5(x+1)=4(x+8)
distribute
a(b+c)=ab+ac
5(x+1)=5x+5
4(x+8)=4x+32
5x+5=4x+32
minus 4x from both sides
x+5=32
minus 5 from both sides
x=27
Too little information plz add more.
Answer:
Measure of the acute angle = 84°
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached,
ABDE is a swimming pool having length 'AB' = 65 feet
Depth of one end of the pool is BE = 4 feet
And depth of the other end AD = 11 feet
Acute angle between the bottom of the pool (DE) and wall of the deep end (AD) is ∠ADE.
Now from ΔCDE,
tanx = 
tanx = 
x = 
x = 6.15°
Now measure of acute angle the bottom of the pool makes with wall at he deep end,
m∠ADE = (90 - 6.15)°
= 83.85°
≈ 84°
