Answer:
b = 17
∠QPS = 124°
∠SPT = 17°
∠TPR = 39°
Step-by-step explanation:
- The sum of the three angles shown is a linear angle, with a measure of 180°.
This fact can be used to write an equation:
(8b -12)° +b° +(2b+5)° = 180°
11b -7 = 180
11b = 187
b = 17
8b -12 = 8(17) -12 = 124
2b +5 = 2(17) +5 = 39
The value of b is 17.
The angle measures are ...
∠QPS = 124°
∠SPT = 17°
∠TPR = 39°
Answer:
-18x-12
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4(-24x-16)=-18x-12
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
So to find the answer you want to isolate the y. So the first thing you want to do is to move everything to the opposite side of the = sign. You start by adding 10 to both sides.
10+ 5y -10 = -25 +10
5y = -15.
the tens cancel out on the left side and on the right you get left with -15/
Since y is being multiplied by 5 you always want to do the opposite so you divide by 5.
5y/5 = -15/5
y = -3
It's hard to explain but you just have to remember that what you do to one side you must do to the other to keep the equation balanced.
