Answer:
x = -15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we will simply use equation properties to solve for x.
2x - 5 = -20
2x - 5 + 5 = -20 + 5
2x = -15 ( Add positive 5 to both sides )
2x * (1/2) = -15 * (1/2)
x = -15/2 ( Multiply both sides by 1/2)
Hence, the solution to x is -15 / 2.

B has two pre-images of -7 so it is not a function
- 3x + 2x + 5 + 5x + 15 = 180 [angles on a line add to 180 degrees]
- 10x + 20 = 180 [combine like terms]
- 10x = 160 [subtract 20 from both sides]
- x = 16 [divide both sides by 10]
Arc AB measures 3(16) = 48 degrees.
Arc BC measures 2(16) + 5 = 41 degrees.
