So use distributive property
which is
a(b+c)=ab+ac so
1/2(x+20)=1/2x+10

and the other
4(6-x)=24-4x

so now we have
1/2x+10=17/4x+24-4x
convert -4x to -16/4x and add to the 17/4x
1/2x+10=1/4x+24
subtract 24 from boths ides
1/2x-14=1/4x
multily both sides by 4
2x-56=x
subtract x from both sides
x-56=0
add 56 to both sides
x=56

What is X?<br><br> 2.3x-8.7=0.8x-4.2<br><br> pLS hELP
daser333 [38]

Answer:

x = 45/17

Step-by-step explanation:

We can move all x to 1 side and all the numbers to another. You can add 8.7 on both sides and get that 2.3x = 0.8x + 4.5. Next, we subtract by 0.8x on both sides to get that 1.7x = 4.5, where we can then divide by 17/10 on both sides to get that x is equal to 45/10 * 10/17, so that means that x = 45/17.

Kari drew two parallel lines PQ and RS intersected by a transversal KL, as shown below:
Arlecino [84]
Given that PQ and RS are drawn with KL as tranversal intersecting PQ at M and RS at point N. Angle QMN is congruent to angle LNS because they are alternate to each other. The theorem that Kari can use to show that the meansure of QML is supplementary to the measure of angle SNK is Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem.
This is because angle KNR is equal to QML by alternate exterior angles theorem so is angle MLP and SNK
