First, realize that angle ABC is the sum of the two other angles. Hence, form an equation in which you subtract the measure of one of the angles from angle ABC to get the measure of the other angle -- the one you are solving for.
Answer:
5(8-x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Fact using the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 40 and 5
Factors of 5:
1,5
Factors of 40:
1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40
The greatest factor they both have is 5
Factor by distributing out a 5
40-5x
5(8-x)
Answer:
x = -180
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = 0.65x + 117
-117 = 65x/100
cross-multiply to solve for 'x':
65x = -11700
x = -11700/65
x = -180
