The two congruent base angles tell us that this is an isosceles triangle, meaning the triangle has two congruent sides. Therefore, we can set these two expressions equal to each other and solve from there.
15x + 7 = 23x - 17
7 = 8x - 17
8x = 24
x = 3
Side = 15(3) + 7 = 45 + 7 = 52
Hope this helps!
It is not a circle but you can find the equation of the ellipse.
To do this we need to work out the major and minor radii and the centre
The centre is at (9, 7)
The major (y) radius is 1 and the minor (x) radius is 5
Therefore the equation is (x-9)/5 + (y-7)/1 = 1

Answer:
x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there!
The shown angles are vertical angles
if you didn't know vertical angles are congruent
That being said we can create equation
5x + 40 = 115
now we solve for x
step 1 subtract 40 from each side
40 - 40 cancels out
115 - 45 = 75
now we have 75 = 5x
step 2 divide each side by 5
5x/5=x
75/5=15
we're left with x = 15
