The obvious answer to this would be 10.
The most simple way to do it would be taking out 3 x from each side of the equation and do 20 = 10 + _
Another way would be to actually solve it.
Let us put into the situation that the unknown variable would be y. The equation then would look like this.
3 x 20 = 3 x (10 + y)
Then solve
3 x 20 = 3 x (10 + y)
-------- ---------------
3 3
20 = 10 + y
20 - 10 = y
10 = y
10 would be the answer
It's b because you have to round up
Answer:
x = 38
∠P = 26º
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angle in a triangle is 180
x + (x + 78) + (x - 12) = 180
Combine like terms
3x + 66 = 180
Subtract 66 from both sides
3x = 114
Divide both sides by 3
x = 38
-----------------------
∠P = x - 12
∠P = 38 - 12
∠P = 26º
The answer is 266 but estimated is 260
