12x - 18 - 4x -2
12x - 4x = 8x (yours 12x - 4x = 8)
-18 - 2 = -20 (yours -18 -1 = 17)
answer:
8x - 20
Hello!
We are told that n and m are parallel.
The angle that measures 105 degrees is supplementary with the alternate interior angle of the angle which measures (3x - 18) degrees. Supplementary angles add to equal 180 degrees, so we can make an equation by first finding the measure of the alternate interior angle.
180 - 105 = 75
The alternate interior angle measures 75 degrees, so we can set that equal to 3x - 18 to solve for x since alternate interior angles are congruent.
75 = 3x - 18
93 = 3x
31 = x
Answer:
x = 31
As you can see, angle 5 and angle 6 are supplementary. And angle 5 and angle 3 are congruent because they are alternate interior angles.
So it will be
x+2 = 180- x+3
move x over from the right to the left
2x+2 = 183
move 2 over from the left to the right
2x = 181
divide by 2
x= 90.5
and angle 3 and angle 1 are vertical angles so they are congruent. Using the angle 3 formula to solve for the answer:
90.5+3 =93.5
When angles are congruent, their measures are congruent, therefore, measure of angle 1 is 93.5
Simply multiply 0.7 by 100. 0.7 x 100= 70%. The answer is 70%
