Step-by-step explanation:

1. x=16, a=17, b=17, c=19

2. k=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

We can set up an equation where all the labeled sides add up to 53, and then find x:

(2x-15)+(x+1)+(3x-29)=53

6x-43=53

6x=96

x=16

Now that we know x, we can plug it back in to the expressions of the triangles to find their side lengths:

a=2(16)-15=17

b=16+1=17

c=3(16)-29=19

2.

Reminder: the slope of a line is its change in y over its change in x. We can then set up an equation:

i think it is everything has to equal 180 so, if i correct 4=c. 6=d. 8=a. 7=b. and the last question would be c. because they are parallel lines and they are congruent.

step-by-step explanation:

the reason everything has to equal to 180 is because that is how it works. i'm guessing that is its rule. 4 and 8 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 6 and 7 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 60+60 is 180. so, now you have your answer
