<u>Given</u>:
The given figure shows the intersection of the two lines.
The angles formed by the intersection of the two lines are (3x - 8)° and (2x + 12)°
We need to determine the equation to solve for x and to find the value of x.
<u>Equation to solve for x:</u>
Since, the two angles (3x - 8)° and (2x + 12)° are vertically opposite angles and the vertical angles are always equal.
Hence, we have;

Thus, the equation to solve for x is 
<u>Value of x:</u>
The value of x can be determined by solving the equation 
Thus, we have;


Thus, the value of x is 20.
Answer: y = 5x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer would be 4(x^6+x-3)
Answer:
a = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
2(a + 7) = 5a - 13
We want to bring a to one side, I will choose to bring it to the right
First, expand the bracket by multiplying 2 with a + 7
2a + 14 = 5a - 13
Bring the -13 to the left by adding 13 to both sides
2a + 14 + 13 = 5a - 13 + 13
Simplify
2a + 27 = 5a
Bring the 2a to the right by subtracting 2a from both sides
2a - 2a + 27 = 5a - 2a
Simplify
27 = 5a - 2a
27 = 3a
Bring the 3 to the left by dividing both sides by 3
27÷3 = a
Simplify
a = 9
