When doing this equation, draw a big X on your paper. At the top of the x you do A times C. At the bottom, you put the B. To factor, you need to find what two numbers MULTIPLY together to equal the A times C, and that add together to get the B.
In all you will get (q+7) (q-6)
Answer:
Part 1) 
The value of x is 
Part 2) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) Simplify the given equation
we have

In the left side, remove the parenthesis and apply the distributive property
Remember that

so


Combine like terms left side

Adds 7x both sides

subtract 15 both sides

Divide by 7 both sides

Part 2) Solve for x.

Apply distributive property both sides

Group terms that contain the same variable

Combine like terms

Answer:
x = 8°, y = 86°
Step-by-step explanation:
the other base angle inside the triangle must be 'y' as well because two sides are congruent
y = 180-94 or 86°
x = 180-(2x86) = 180 - 172 or 8°
