X = 12

because if you notice, each of the angles have a little arc in the corner, which means they are congruent. if all three angles are congruent, that means each angle is 60° because each triangle has a maximum value of 180°. therefore, this means it is an equilateral triangle.

that being said, each side must be equal as well. so, you can use any two sides to find x by using each one on a different side of an equation, then isolating and solving.

5x - 22 = 3x + 2 = 4x - 10

so

5x - 22 = 3x + 2
3x + 2 = 4x - 10
4x - 10 = 5x - 22

whichever one you solve for, x = 12. and if you plug in that number for x, each side equals the same number = 38

Use the distributive property to remove the parentheses -5(2x-3w-6)

Answer:

15w - 10x + 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(2x - 3w - 6)

= (-5 * 2x) + (-5 * -3w) + (-5 * -6)

= -10x + 15w + 30

= 15w - 10x + 30.

Hope this helps!
