Select the correct answer. How many solutions for x does the following equation have?

3(x + 8) − 1 = 3x + 4

A.
infinite
B.
1
C.
4
D.
0

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.

m∠abd = m∠dbc

step-by-step explanation:

given : ab bisects ∠dbc

as we know that bisection means ab divides   ∠dbc   in two equal angles named as   ∠dba and   ∠abc

so, m∠abd = m∠dbc  

because ab bisects ∠dbc.

hence , the first statement m∠abd = m∠dbc is true.
