If we have a number represented by n, we have 20 is equal to, so 20=something. That something is "5 less than twice a number". 5 less than something means something-5, and something-5=20. Since 5 is less than twice a number, and twice a number is n+n=2n, we have 2n-5=20
Actually solving the problem, we can start by adding 5 to both sides, resulting in 2n=25. Next, we can divide both sides by 2 to get n=12.5

Answer: b = 69

The slashes mean the opposite angles are the same. This is and isosceles triangle, which mean two sides are the same and one is not.

A triangle = 180

We know one angle is 42 and the other two angles are the same.

Subtract 42 from 180

180 - 42 = 138

Now the 138 is going to two sides but we know they are equal so we can divide 138 by 2

138 divided by 2 = 69

So b = 69
