Hello! I believe the answer is x = 320 ? 
Here's how I got this : 

Since 16 = x/20, why don't we multiply 16(20)? That way, we figure out what you divided by 20 to get 16. 
 
          16 (20) = 320 

320/16 = 20  and 320/20 = 16!

If x and y are two nonnegative numbers and the sum of twice the first ( x ) and three times the second ( y ) is 60, find x so th

2x+3y=60 solve for x...

x=(60-3y)/2

p=xy^3, using x from above:

p=y^3(60-3y)/2

p=(60y^3-3y^4)/2

dp/dy=(180y^2-12y^3)/2

dp/dy=90y^2-6y^2

dp/dy=0 when:

90y^2-6y^3=0

6y^2(15-y)=0, we know y>0 so

y=15, since x=(60-3y)/2

x=7.5

(We solved it this way because otherwise you get quartic equations and cubic derivatives, yuck :P)

Translate the scenario below to a linear equation, then solve.
sashaice [31]

Answer:  x + 2x + x-40 = 180

First angle= 55º

Second angle= 110º

Third angle= 15º

​Step-by-step explanation:  The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180º

Take the values given and  use x as the unknown first angle. then create terms for the other two angles based on that:

The second angle of a triangle is double the first angle  becomes 2x

The third angle is 40 less than the first angle becomes x-40

x + 2x + x-40 = 180  Solve by adding like terms . x + 2x + x = 4x

4x -40 = 180   Add 40 to both sides to "cancel" the -40 on the left

4x + 40 -40 = 180 + 40   becomes  

4x = 220  Divide both sides by 4 to "cancel" the 4 on the left side

4x/4 = 220/4

x = 55   This is the first angle. Substitute 55 for the  "x" in the original terms

2(55) = 110   The second angle

(55) -40 = 15   the third angle

Find the measure of the indicated angle in each triangle
Alecsey [184]

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

⇢∠V + ∠T = ∠x

⇢53° + 103° = 156°

⇢∠VUX = 156°

‌

‌

Hence , option b is the correct answer.
