Hey there!
4x + 7 + 35 = 90°
4x + 42 = 90°
SUBTRACT 42 to BOTH SIDES
4x + 42 - 42 = 90 - 42
CANCEL out: 42 - 42 because it give you 0.
KEEP: 90 - 42 because it help solve for the x-value.
NEW EQUATION: 4x = 90 - 42
SIMPLIFY IT!
4x = 48°
DIVIDE 4 to BOTH SIDES
4x/4 = 48/4
CANCEL out: 4/4 because it give you 1
KEEP: 48/4 because it give you the x-value
NEW EQUATION: x = 48/4
SIMPLIFY IT!
x = 12
Therefore, your answer is: x = 12
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Two ways we can solve this problem:
1. Graphically
2. Mathematically
Because you already solved it graphically, I will show you how to do so mathematically. Of course, graphically is much much easier and more efficient in this problem.
Let's break the problem down.
First, we are given a graph which contains a slope.
To find slope, we use the technique -> rise/run
Picking 2 obvious points from the graph, we can see
1st point -> (10, 20)
2nd point -> (40, 80)
Now, let's find the slope

Now, we have an equation y = 2x, where y = number of pies and x = cups of sugar
We want to find how many cups of sugar we need to bake 80 pies. Simply substitute 80 = number of pies = y
y = 2x -> 80 = 2x
Solving for x, divide both sides by 2
40 = x
We need 40 cups of sugar.
