The answer should be 2x-5
Since 6x - 44 and 88 degrees are the same (exterior angles), we can start off with the first equation, 6x - 44 = 88
6x - 44 = 88
+44 +44
6x = 132
÷6 ÷6
x = 22
same with the second problem (exterior angles are equal):
equation:
15x + 6 = 9x + 54
-6 -6
15x = 9x + 48
-9x -9x
6x = 48
÷6 ÷6
x = 8
Hope this helped! :D
First we must change these numbers to improper fractions:
So then we set it up:
÷
When we divide fractions like this, we must flip the second fraction and change the sign from division to multiplication like so:
Then we solve:
Then if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 9, we get:
or, in mixed-number form, .
