Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the hint: The two angle measures would add up to 180°.

(5x+10)+(2x-5)=180\\\\5x+10+2x-5=180\\\\5x+2x+10-5=180\\\\7x+5=180\\\\7x+5-5=180-5\\\\7x=175\\\\\frac{7x=175}{7}\\\\\boxed{x=25}

Hope this helps.

Find the value of x <br>​
den301095 [7]

x = 20 is the answer.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

When a parallel lines cut by a transversal, then the alternate exterior angles are congruent.

So the given 2 angles add up to 180 degrees.

5x+ 9 + 3x+ 11 = 180

8x + 20 = 180

8x = 180 - 20 = 160

  x = 160/8 = 20

Answer:

I believe the answer is B. 15/5 = n/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Once again same method as I've explained before. However, this one tricked me a little bit and still is because of the appearance of the smaller triangle. However, If I don't focus on that I believe this answer is correct. This is because in order to find the missing side we need to find the factor of which the triangle was expanded. So we must divide a given side of the bigger triangle by the same similar side of the little triangle, like 15/5. Then we must divide n by its similar side which the appearance made me think 13 which is not an option so I believe it is 12 and it was just trying to throw me off. So n/12. Therefore that is why I believe B is correct.
