Answer:
∠a = 10°
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of ∠a = x
The measure of ∠b = 4x-30
It is also mentioned that the measure a and measure b are vertical angles. We need to find the value of a.
For vertically opposite angles,
∠a = ∠b
x = 4x-30
or
4x-30=x
Taking like terms together,
4x-x= 30
3x = 30
x = 10
So, the meausre of ∠a is equal to 10°.
Answer:
3 + 4 = 7 which is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever you have an equation with a plain variable (that is, no exponent included), there is only one number that will work when substituted for x.
To solve it, you have to "undo" what is done to the variable. You also go in the reverse order of operations, so you do the addition/subtract first, then multiplication/division.
You also have to do the same to both sides, kind of like keeping a balance scale in balance.
In this case, we subtract 4 from both sides first:
3x + 4 -4 = 7 - 4
The + 4 - 4 cancel each other out, so you get:
3x = 3
3x means "3 times x" so you divide by 3 to undo it. I will use the / to indicate division:
3x / 3 = 3 /3
so 1x = 1.
Since 1x is "1 times x" it is the same as x by itself, so:
x=1
AND, if we substitute 1 back into the original equation (the asterisk stands for multiply):
3 * 1 + 4 = 7
3 * 1 is 3, so:
3 + 4 = 7 which is true.
1 is the only number that works.
Hope this helped.
