For this problem, if we used b to represent your base angle measurement, you would add 8b+2b and set it equal to 180. This is because the measure of the vertex angle is 8 times the base angle measurement, so we had to multiply b by 8. We also had to add it to the other angle measures, so the other angle measures are represented as 2b since they are the same length. We then have to set this equal to 180 since that measures of a triangle must add up to 180. Then we combine like terms on our “b” side to get 10b=180. Then we divide both sides by 10 and we get b=18, which is the measure of our base angle.

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

I believe it is X * 2 + 5 = Jim's total

Step-by-step explanation:

X is the amount of hours Kelly reads and multiplying X by 2 is how you find Tim's total. Then to find Jim's total you add 5 because that's how many more hours he reads than Tim.

Fill in the steps to solve the log log base x of (2x)^3=6​
arsen [322]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

logx (2x)^3 = 6

We can rewrite without the exponent

3 logx (2x) = 6

Divide by 3

3/3 logx (2x) = 6/3

logx (2x) = 2

Raise each side to the base x

x^ logx (2x) =x^ 2

2x = x^2

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-2x = x^2 -2x

0 = x^2 -2x

Factor an x

0 = x(x-2)

Using the zero product property

x =0 x-2 =0

x =0  x=2

We cannot have a base of 0, so x cannot equal 0

x=2
