Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1.)
[tex]6x + 5 = 360\\6x = 355\\x = \frac{355}{6} \\x = 59.167[/tex]
Either one works, it's just that 355/6 cannot be simplified.
2.) Set up and draw the triangle.
[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\a ^2 - c^2 = b ^2\\\sqrt{a^2 -c^2} = b\\\sqrt{25^2+15^2} = b\\\sqrt{850} = b[/tex]
B is approximately 29. We aren't using the a + b as we're not solving for the hypotenuse. We're solving for one of the legs. C is our hypotenuse, the ladder is A, and we're solving for the height of the building B.
3.)
[tex]30x + 14\\22x + 24\\30x+14 = 22x + 24\\\\8x + 14 = 24\\8x = 10\\\x = 10/8\\x = 1.25[/tex]
