D. 25

Answer 1

is there anything else that goes with the question?

Answer 2

No, that is all they give me.

Answer 3

The awnser is A

Answer 4

Could you show me how you got the answer?

Answer 5

no its D

Answer 6

i started at m<3=2x+7

Answer 7

since you already have one angle which is 90
and you know that all triangles equal to 180

Answer 8

true

Answer 9

you would first subtract 180 from 90

Answer 10

meaning that both angles equal to 90

Answer 11

soo you would add the expressions of both angles and set them to equal to 90 then solve

Answer 12

and the answer is 30

Answer 13

Not D

Answer 14

huh?

Answer 15

The answer is A?

Answer 16

i mean 25

Answer 17

sorry

Answer 18

how are you getting 30?

m < 2 + m < 3 = 90

x+8 + 2x + 7 = 90

3x + 15 = 90

3x = 90 - 15

3x = 75

x = 75/3

x = 25

m < 2 = x+8

m < 2 = 25 + 8

m < 2 = 33

Answer 19

well x is 25 then you would plug it back in

Answer 20

so the answer is 33

Answer 21

i forgot to do the second part sorry :)
