Option A is true because the sum of angles in a triangle is 180, so we can rule that one out immediately.
We can solve for x for the other 3 options by setting up this equation:
7x+2 + 4x+7 + 8x = 180 | Simplify
19x + 9 = 180 | Subtract 9
19x = 171 | Divide by 19
x=9
Now we can substitute x into all the values:
<J = 7x+2 = 65
<L = 4x+7 = 43
<K = 8x = 72
Looking at the options again, we can see that A, B, and D are true, leaving C to be false.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 9x + 8
y = 7.5x + 16
1.5x = 8
x = 5.3 hours

Answer:
The slant of the ladder is 5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the attached figure to understand this situation
∵ a represents the distance from the edge to the top step
∵ The distance from the edge to the top step is 4 ft
∴ a = 4 ft
∵ b represents the distance to the house's edge from the bottom step
∵ The distance to the house's edge from the bottom step is 3 ft
∴ b = 3 ft
∵ c represents the slant of the ladder
∴ We need to find c
→ By using the Pythagoras Theorem
∵ c =
∴ c =
∵ = 5
∴ c = 5 ft
∴ The slant of the ladder is 5 ft
