The sum of twice a number and 5 less than the

Mathematics
1 answer:
Daniel [21]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

2x + (x-5) = x - 17

2x + x - 5 = x - 17

3x - x = -17 + 5

2x = -12

: x = -12/2

x = -6

What is the fraction 2-5 2 on top and 5 on bottom ) equivalent to?
Andrei [34K]

To get to simplest form find the greatest common factor, or the gcf, of both numbers. To do that find all of the factors and find the one with the highest value both numbers share. So 30 would have factors of 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30, and 42 would have the factors of 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42. Both numbers share the factors of 1, 2, 3, and 6 so the gcf is 6. Now divide both numbers by six to get your answer.

In the following image, AB is parallel to DC, and BC is a transversal intersecting both parallel lines. The measure of angle ABC
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

n° = 62°

p° = 62°

q° = 118°

v° = 84°

w° = 138°

Step-by-step explanation:

angle ABC is 118°

so

m° + 118° = 180

m° = 180° - 118°

m° = 62°

n° = m° = 62° (corresponding angles are equal since AB is parallel to DC, and BC)

p° = n° = 62° (vertical angles are equal)

q° + n° = 180° (linear pair angles)

q° + 62° = 180°

q° = 180° - 62°

q° = 118°

v° + 96° = 180° (linear pair angles)

v°  = 180° - 96°

v° = 84°

w° + 42° = 180 (linear pair angles)

w° = 180° - 42°

w° = 138°
