Nastasia [14]
(21 + 34 + x + 25 + 37 + 22) / 6 = 30
(139 + x) / 6 = 30 .....multiply both sides by 6
139 + x = 30 * 6
139 + x = 180
x = 180 - 139
x = 41......so during week 3, she rode her bike 41 miles

Please help me find x
Ghella [55]

Answer:

x = 53

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the sum of all 3 interior angles in a triangle is 180∘ so

74 + x + x = 180

74 + 2x = 180

2x = 180 - 74

2x = 106

x = 106/2

x = 53
