-18 + 2a = 2(3a + 1)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nadusha1986 [10]3 years ago

Answer:

a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-18 + 2a = 2(3a + 1)

Expand the bracket on the right

-18 + 2a = 2 x 3a + 2 x 1

-18 + 2a = 6a + 2

Add 18 to both sides

-18 + 18 + 2a = 6a + 2 + 18

2a = 6a + 20

Subtract 6a from both sides

2a - 6a = 6a - 6a + 20

-4a = 20

Divide both sides by -4

-4a/-4 = 20/-4

a = -5

I need help finding x please?
enot [183]

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\blue{To\:find}}{\blue{:}}}}}

The value of x.

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\orange{Solution}}{\orange{:}}}}}

\longrightarrow{\green{x\:=\: 25° }} 

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\red{:}}}}}

We know that,

\sf\purple{Sum\:of\:angles\:on\:a\:straight\:line\:=\:180°}

➪ 125° + x + 30° = 180°

➪ x + 155° = 180°

➪ x = 180° - 155°

➪ x = 25°

Therefore, the value of x is 25°.

Now, the three angles of the triangle are 125°, 25° and 30°.

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\pink{To\:verify}}{\pink{:}}}}}

✒ 125° + 25° + 30° = 180°

✒ 180° = 180°

✒ L. H. S. = R. H. S.

\boxed{Hence\:verified.}
