Two supplementary angles have the following measures:  m∠ABC=135° and m∠CBD=9x° . What is the equation to solve for x ?(1 point)

Responses

9x°=180°
9 x equals 180

9x°+135°=90°
9 x plus 135 equals 90

9x°−135°=180°
9 x minus 135 equals 180

9x°+135°=180°

Pls get it right thx

To find the equation for the two supplementary angles, we start by recalling that supplementary angles add up to 180°.

Given:

  • \( m∠ABC = 135° \)
  • \( m∠CBD = 9x° \)

Since these angles are supplementary, we can write the equation: \[ m∠ABC + m∠CBD = 180° \]

Substituting the given values into the equation: \[ 135° + 9x° = 180° \]

To simplify the problem, we subtract 135° from both sides: \[ 9x° = 180° - 135° \]

Therefore, the correct equation to solve for \( x \) is: \[ 9x° + 135° = 180° \]

This confirms that the response is: 9x° + 135° = 180°.
