Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
B involves direct variation.
y and x are directly proportional.
Answer:
76 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
GE = 180 since it is a straight line
GE = GR + FE
180 = 7x+6 +6x-8
Combine like terms
180 = 13x-2
Add 2 to each side
182 = 13x
Divide by 13
182/13 = 13x/13
14 =x
We want FE
FE = 6x-8
FE = 6(14) -8
=84 -8
=76
