There would be 60 pages in the book totally because you would set 40/x=2/3 and solve for x.

40/x=2/3

2x=120

x=60

Solve for x in the triangle above

faust18 [17]

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle must always add up to 180.

2x + 2x + 3x - 30 = 180

Add 30 to both sides to seperate variables.

2x + 2x + 3x = 210

Combine like terms.

7x = 210

Divide by 7 to isolate x.

x = 30
