Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
First angle = x = 35°
Second angle = 2x = 2(35) = 70°
Third angle = 2x+5 = 70 + 5 = 75°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given : </u>
The second angle measures twice the first, and the third angle measures 5 more than the second.
Sum of angles = 180°
<u>Solution : </u>
Let the first angle be x
According to the given question :
Second angles = 2x
Third angle = 2x + 5
we know that Sum of angles = 180°
<u>Solving x value :</u>
x + 2x + (2x+5) = 180°
5x + 5 = 180
5x = 180 - 5
5x = 175
x = 175/5
x = 35
<u>Finding the measure of each angle : </u>
First angle = x = 35°
Second angle = 2x = 2(35) = 70°
Third angle = 2x+5 = 70 + 5 = 75
The answer should be A, the sum of p and q.
Plug in a value for p and q to figure this out.
Here, I'm using 4 for p and 5 for q.
(x+4)(x+5)
x^2+5x+4x+20
x^2+9x+20
Here, the coefficient for the x term is 9 and 9 is the sum of p and q (4+5).
