Answer:

72° is the largest angle, 63°, 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 5x + 8x = 180

20x = 180

20x/20 = 180/20

x = 9

I set the equation equal to 180 because there are 180 degrees in a triangle.

Now find the largest angle, which will be the 8x, since 8 is bigger than 5 and 7.

8(9)

72° is the largest angle

If you need the other two angle measures:

7(9)

63°

5(9)

45°

WARRIOR [948]

The GCF is based upon what integer divides evenly into two numbers; the LCM is based upon what integer two numbers share in a list of multiples. The GCF must be a prime number; the LCM must be a composite number.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Function: $y=140+25x$

Amount earned for 10 hours of work: $\$390$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of hours worked on a project and "y" the total amount Luigi charges for a project.

Based on the data given in the exercise, you can identify that:

$140 is a fixed amount.
For each hour worked on the project, Luigi charges $25. This can be expressed as: $25x$

Then, the total amount he charges for a project is the sum of $140 and $25x$ . This can be represented with the following function:

$y=140+25x$

To calculate the amount of money earned for 10 hours of work, you must substitute $x=10$ into the function and evaluate. Then:

$y=140+25(10)\\\\y=390$
