Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear pair of angles sum to 180° , then
2x + 9 + 10x + 15 = 180 , that is
12x + 24 = 180 ( subtract 24 from both sides )
12x = 156 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x = 13
There are many ways of solving for limits. The easiest way is to directly plug in the x value that the graph is approaching. While you're not looking for the limit in this question, you should still be plugging in that x value, 3, to help create an equation for you to solve for a and b!
So start by plugging in 3 for x. Once you do that, you can get rid of the pesky lim notation, so from then on it would be algebra:

Now isolate the variables a and b by multiplying by 3 on both sides, adding 2 on both sides, and then squaring both sides:




Since you're not given any other information, I'm assuming you can probably just put in random numbers that work for a and b so that it equals 25. For example, a = 5 and b = 10.
