Answer:

x=72 and the exterior angle is 154

Step-by-step explanation:

We will call the unknown angle in the triangle y.  Angle y and the angle (2x +10) form a straight line so they make 180 degrees.

y + 2x+10 =180

Solve for y by subtracting 2x+10 from each side.

y + 2x+10 - (2x+10) =180 - (2x+10)

y = 180-2x-10

y = 170-2x


The three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees

x+ y+ 82 = 180

x+ (170-2x)+82 = 180

Combine like terms

-x +252=180

Subtract 252 from each side

-x+252-252 = 180-252

-x = -72

Multiply each side by -1

-1*-x = -72*-1

x=72

The exterior angle is 2x+10.  Substitute x=72 into the equation.

2(72)+10

144+10

154

Explain how you know that 7/12 is greater than 1/3 but less t than 2/3
Dmitrij [34]
You would make all the fractions have the same common denominator of 12. First you would keep the fraction 7/12 because the denominator is already 12. Next you would take the fraction 1/3 and multiply it by 4/4 and the new fraction for 1/3 becomes 4/12. Lastly you would take 2/3 and multiply that by 4/4 and the fraction becomes 8/12. Now you can compare the fractions with the same denominator. Therefore 7/12 is greater than 1/3 but less than 2/3
