8 0

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Expand

8x - 5x + 5 = 20

2. Simplify

3x + 5 = 20

3. Subtract 5 from both sides

3x = 20 - 5

4. Simplify

3x = 15

5. Divide both sides by 3

x = 15/3

6. Simplify

x = 5

The answer for this math problem

laiz [17]

Hi, We have a isosceles triangle.

Then,

There is two angles = (2x +2)°

As the sum of angles = 180° To the any triangle.

Then we wiil stay with:

(2x+2)° + (2x+2)° +(3x+1)° = 180°

Canceling °

2x+2+2x+2+3x+1=180

7x +5 = 180

7x = 180-5

7x = 175

Passing 7 dividing 175

x = 175/7

x = 25

This would be your answer!
