Here is the correct answer.
4x + 108 = 144(equation)
-108 -108 (Subtract 108 both sides)
4x = 36 (simplify)
/4 /4 (divide by 4)
x = 9 (Answer)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The two horizontal lines are parallel ( This is given by the red triangles)
Because the lines are parallel, the two angles 1 & 2 would be the same.
Set the two equations for the angle to equal each other and solve:
8y-6 = 7y
Add 6 to each side:
8y = 7y+6
Subtract 7y from each side:
y = 6
Now you have the value for y, solve for angle 2 by replacing y with 6:
Angle 2 = 7y = 7(6) = 42 degrees.
Answer: In order to begin figuring that out, we need to know how both of their plans work.
