Answer:

The measures of the two angles are 78° and 102°

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>When two lines intersects at a point, then pairs of linear angles are formed</em>

  • The linear pair of angles are adjacent angles the sum of their measures is 180°

∵ The two angles form a linear pair

∴ The sum of the two angles = 180°

∵ The measure of one of them = 24° more than the measure

    of the other angle

→ Assume that the smaller one is x, then the greater one is

   x + 24, add them up and equate their sum by 180°

∵ x + x + 24 = 180

→ Add the like term in the left side

∴ 2x + 24 = 180

→ Subtract 24 from both sides

∴ 2x + 24 - 24 = 180 - 24

∴ 2x = 156

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ 2x/2 = 156/2

∴ x = 78°

∴ The smaller angle = 78°

∵ The larger angle is x + 24

∴ The larger angle = 78 + 24 = 102°

The measures of the two angles are 78° and 102°

3/4x=-18 what is the answer?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

X= 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    3/4*x-(18)=0

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

           3

Simplify   —

           4

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  3        

 (— • x) -  18  = 0

  4        

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

2.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  4  as the denominator :

         18     18 • 4

   18 =  ——  =  ——————

         1        4  

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

3x - (18 • 4)     3x - 72

—————————————  =  ———————

      4              4  

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  3x - 72  =   3 • (x - 24)

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 3 • (x - 24)

 ————————————  = 0

      4      

Step  4  :

When a fraction equals zero :

4.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 3•(x-24)

 ———————— • 4 = 0 • 4

    4    

Now, on the left hand side, the  4  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  3  •  (x-24)  = 0

Equations which are never true :

4.2      Solve :    3   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

4.3      Solve  :    x-24 = 0

Add  24  to both sides of the equation :

                     x = 24

One solution was found :

                  x = 24
