Answer:
x = 35.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of all interior angles in a triangle = 180°
Therefore:
(x + 2)° + (2x + 2)° + (2x - 1)° = 180°
x + 2 + 2x + 2 + 2x - 1 = 180
Collect like terms
x + 2x + 2x + 2 + 2 - 1 = 180
5x + 3 = 180
Subtract 3 from each side
5x + 3 - 3 = 180 - 3
5x = 177
Divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 177/5
x = 35.4
If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah
Answer: length = 4.5 m, width = 3 m
Step-by-step explanation:
When a shape is enlarged using a scale factor, you simply multiply each of the sides by the scale factor.
length = 3 * 1.5 = 4.5 m
width = 2 * 1.5 = 3 m
Do you have a picture for this problem? There are multiple different ways to solve this problem but I'll need a picture to help you.
so you have your two equations 3x+7=5x-23 and solve for x which is your "number" leaving the answer to be <u>x=15</u>
