Sorry, it's late, and I'm a bad explainer.
The error is adding (2x-12) with x and 30. This is wrong because you are adding the angles inside the triangle and you are assuming that (2x - 12) is the unlabeled angle INSIDE the triangle, when it is the exterior angle/outside of the triangle.
A straight line is also 180°.
(2x - 12) + ? = 180
30 + x + ? = 180
If you look at the equations, and put parentheses around 30 + x, (30 + x) and (2x - 12) should be the SAME NUMBER. So you could set them equal to each other to find x. (or you could also look at the picture and see that they both need/are missing the same angle)
2x - 12 = 30 + x
x = 42
Now you plug 42 into the exterior angle equation
2(42) - 12 = 84 - 12 = 72°

Have a good day!
Brainliest PLEASE!!?!?!?!??!?!!?!!?!?!?
It should give you the option to do so.
This is simply what I wrote for my assignment, sorry I am a bit late.
<em>It was confusing when she took out the negative and postive pairs, but then I soon knew that the negative tiles are like subtracting positive tiles. Then once she got the total I was amazed with how easy it was to find out the value of x.</em>
hope this helps! <3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
Only employees are hired during the first 3 days of the week with equal probability.
2 employees are selected at random.
So:
A. The probability that an employee has been hired on a Monday is:
.
If we call P(A) the probability that 2 employees have been hired on a Monday, then:
B. We now look for the probability that two selected employees have been hired on the same day of the week.
The probability that both are hired on a Monday, for example, we know is . We also know that the probability of being hired on a Monday is equal to the probability of being hired on a Tuesday or on a Wednesday. But if both were hired on the same day, then it could be a Monday, a Tuesday or a Wednesday.
So
.
C. If the probability that two people have been hired on a specific day of the week is 
, then the probability that 7 people have been hired on the same day is:
D. The probability is 
. This number is quite close to zero. Therefore it is an unlikely bastate event.
