Answer:

-6x + 15 = - 69 which x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

You cannot solve this equation. There is no equal sign anywhere. Either you mean

-6x = 15 in which case the answer is

-6x/-6 = 15/-6

x = - 2 1/2 or x= - 2.5

or you mean that you use the distributive property

- 3(2x + 5)

You may have left something out of this.

-6x + 15 = -  69

You can do it now that you have the complete equation. But you need the entire equation before you can answer the question.

Subtract - 15 from both sides.

-6x + 15 - 15 = -69 - 15

-6x = - 84

Divide by - 6

-6x/-6 = - 84/-6

x = 14

But what you want is

-6x + 15

-6*14 + 15

-84 + 15

-69

-6x + 15 = - 69

when x = 14 which is usually what you are asked.

B. Multiply 6 by 3

Your step by step for getting the number Hannah started with:

First, multiply 6 with 3:

6 x 3 = 18

Use the figure to find the measures of the numbered angles. ∠5 = ∠6 =
Gwar [14]

Answer:

∠ 5 = 49°, ∠ 6 = 131°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ 5 and 49° are corresponding angles and are congruent, then

∠ 5 = 49°

∠ 5 and ∠ 6 are adjacent angles and are supplementary, sum to 180° , that is

∠ 6 + ∠ 5 = 180°

∠ 6 + 49° = 180° ( subtract 49° from both sides )

∠ 6 = 131°
