$q = - p - 6$

$5q + 2p + 4 - 3q = - 8 \\ 2q + 2p + 4 = - 8 \\ 2q + 4 = - 8 - 2p \\ 2q = - 8 - 2p - 4 \\ 2q = - 12 - 2p \\ \frac{2q}{2} = \frac{ - 2p - 12}{2} \\ q = \frac{ - 2p - 12}{2} \\ q = - p - 6$

Answer:

q = -p-6

Step-by-step explanation:

=> 5q+2p+4 = 3q-8

(Combining like terms)

=>5q-3q = -2p-8-4

=> 2q = -2p -12

=> 2q = 2(-p-6)

Dividing both sides by 2

=> q = -p-6

Horizontal lines n and m are intersected by lines q and p. At the intersection of lines q and n, the uppercase right angle is an

Lapatulllka [165]

The values of the angles based on the information will be:

Angle 2 = 110°

Angle 3 = 70°

Angle 4 = 70°

<h3>How to calculate the angles?</h3>

From the information given, angle 1 is 110° and the horizontal lines n and m are intersected by lines q and p.

In this case, it should be noted that vertcally opposite angles are equal. Hence, angle 2 is also 110°.
