The original number is 72
(18+x)/6 = 1+14
1/6x + 3 = 1 + 14 (Distribute)
1/6x + 3 = (1+14) (Combine Like Terms)
1/6x + 3 = 15
- 3 = -3 (Subtract 3 From Both Sides)
1/6x = 12
(1/6x)*6 = 12 * 6 (Multiply Both Sides By 6)
x = 72
D. -12
Lol I think I've explained this enough times now so you know the process
Answer:B: 36°
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that ∆ABC is isoceles, making (angle)<ABC and <BCA congruent because base angles of isoceles triangles are congruent.
Because we have parallel lines, we can look for alternate interior angle pairs. <BCA is congruent to <DAC because they're alternate interior angles.
If <BCA is x then so is <ABC.
Since triangles add up to 180° we can add all of the angles (3x+x+x) and set it equal to 180.
3x+x+x=180
5x=180
x=36
If we were looking for <BAC we would plug that back in and solve, but we're looking for <BCA which is equal to x, therefore m<BCA=36°
Then, distance of route passes the beach = x
Let the distance of route that passes the park = x+2
So, their sum would be: x+x+2 = 2x+2
So, option C Is your answer.......
