3b+2(b-1) = 8
3b+2b-2 = 8
5b = 8+2
5b = 10
b = 2
Angle 1 and angle 5 are equal so you can set the equations equal to each other. 60 - 2x = 70 - 4x
60 + 2x = 70
2x = 10
x= 5
Step-by-step explanation:
• no solution:
3x+9+4x+x = 8x + 9
• one solution:
3x+9+4x+x = 7x + 11
• infinitely many solutions:
3x+9+4x+x = 8x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
by using similarity and enlargement
10/8 = 7+y/7
70=56+8y
8y=14
y= 7/4
10/8 = 5+x/5
50=40+8x
x = 8/10 = 4/5
