Okay so the value of X is 9x^2/7
Easy
quadratic means 2nd degree
means highest power of exponent is 2
so like x^2
first one
we have 3x^3, that is 3rd degree,nope
2nd one
we have 8x^4, nope, that is 4th degree
3rd one
we have -x^2, yep
4th one, we have 9x^4, that is 4th degree
answer is 3rd one or p(x)=-5x-x^2
Answer:
x = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.
(2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180
4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify
x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)
x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>
A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.
The fractions 25/100 and 50/200 are both equivalent to 1/4.
