Answer:
34
Step-by-step explanation:
Straight lines are 180 degrees, so the angle inside of the triangle next to the 127, is 53 degrees. (180-127= 53)
So to find "x", we need to figure out what the full number is.
59+53 = 112.
180-112= 68.
Now that we have the degree of the full angle, we can make an equation to find x.
x*2 = 68
(Divide 2 from both sides to isolate the variable)
x = 34

Answer:
30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
time = distance/speed
If x represents Jane's speed along the summit then her total exploration time is ...
12/x + 40/(x -5) = 2 . . . . . hours
Multiplying by (x)(x -5), we get ...
12(x -5) +40(x) = 2(x)(x -5)
Dividing by 2 and subtracting the left side gives ...
x^2 -31x +30 = 0
(x -30)(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions are x = 30 and x = 1, values of x that make the factors zero. A speed of 1 mph makes no sense in this problem, so ...
Jane's speed along the summit was 30 mph.
The answer is 7
