It's a simple linear equation in 'y'. There is only one number that 'y' can be
that will make the equation a true statement. That number is called the
'solution' to the equation. Here's one way to find it:
You said that <u> 2 = y/5 - 8</u>
Add 8 to each side: 10 = y/5
Multiply each side by 5: <em> 50 = y</em>
Answer:
Option three
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that m<JKL = m<JKM + m<MKL
Let's substitute the values from the picture into our equation above.
10x - 11 = 43 + 8x - 20
Combine like terms.
10x - 11 = 8x + 23
Subtract 8x from both sides and add 11 to both sides.
2x = 34
Divide both sides by 2
x = 17
m<MKL = 8x - 20 = 8(17) - 20 = 136 - 20 = 116 degrees.
m<JKL = 10x - 11 = 10(17) - 11 = 170 - 11 = 159 degrees.
Step 1 is correct because it is easy method to do math equations
