14 20
---- = ----- cross multiply
3x x-5
14(x-5) = 3x (20)
14x - 70 = 60x
-14x -14x
-70 = 36x
/36 /36
-70/36 = x
or
-35/18 = x
Squaring both sides of the given equation: w^2=7w, or w^2-7w=0.
w^2-7w=0 can be factored: w(w-7)=0. Then, w=7 or w=0. Both 0 and 7 are solutions of this equation.
Answer:
Option A. is the right choice.
Step-by-step explanation:

X=13 and z=112
you know that (13x-57) + (6x-10) = 180 since they are supplementary, so you will solve that. it will give you x=13. now that you know x, you can solve for z by plugging in 13 for x on 13(x)-57 since that and angle z are congruent. when you simplify, you will get z=112.
you can check your answer by doing (6x-10) +112=180. this is because they are supplementary. you should get x=13, and that is how you know you are right.
