Okay, first let's look at what they give us!


The measure of angle 2 is 3x + 1


Measure of angle 3 is 2x + 4


And they give us that one angle is right which means it is 90°


Now if we use what we know of triangles, we know that all the angles in a triangle add up to equal 180 which means if we add angle 2, angle 3, and the right angle together we should get 180. Let's write an equation for it:


3x + 1 + 2x + 4 + 90 = 180


First we will add together liked terms!


3x + 2x = 5x


1 + 4 + 90 = 95


This gets us:


5x + 95 = 180


Second, let's get rid of that 95 by subtracting it from both sides, after doing this it should leave us with:


5x = 85


Third we need to get the x by itself and we can do it by dividing both sides by 5 to get:


x = 17


Now the question asks to find the measure of angle 2, given that angle 2 is 3x + 1 all there is left to do is to plug in 17 for x!

3(17) + 1


51 + 2 to get us 52!


Answer: 52

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The number of meters Robert will beat Sam is 12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

When Paul crossed the finish line of a 60-meter race, he was ahead of Robert by 10 meters and ahead of Sam by 20 meters. Suppose Robert and Sam continue to race to the finish line without changing their rates of speed.

Find:

the number of meters by which Robert will beat Sam

Step 1 of 1

When Paul finishes, Robert has run 60-10=50 meters and Sam has run 60-20=40 meters.

Therefore, when Robert and Sam run for the same amount of time, Sam covers $\frac{40}{50}=\frac{4}{5}$ of the distance that Robert covers. So, while Robert runs the final 10 meters of the race, Sam runs $\frac{4}{5} \cdot 10=8$ meters.

This means Robert's lead over Sam increases by 2 more meters, and he beats Sam by 10+2=12 meters.
