Answer:

a=-8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

  (-1/2a-5)=3a+1

To find the opposite of  1/2 a−5, find the opposite of each term.

-1/2a-(-5)= -3a+1

The opposite of −5 is 5.

-1/2a+5=-3a+1

add 3a to both sides

-1/2a+5+3a=1

Combine-1/2and 3a to get 5/2a

5/2a+5=1

Subtract 5 from both side

5/2a=1-5

Subtract 5 from 1 to get −4.

5/2a=-4

Multiply both sides by 2/5 =0.4, the reciprocal of  5/2=2.5.

a=-4x(2/5)

express -4x(2/5)=1.6 as single  fraction.

a= -4x2/5

Multiply −4 and 2 to get −8.

a=-8/5

Fraction −8/5 ≈−1.6 can be rewritten as −8/5 =−1.6 by extracting the negative sign.

a=-8/5

Please help me Find X
solmaris [256]

The labeled angle is what's called an inscribed angle. There's a theorem (fittingly called the inscribed angle theorem) that says the measure of this angle is half the measure of the circular arc that it subtends.

In this case, the angle is subtended by an arc measuring 180°. So

(4x + 6)° = 1/2 • 180°

4x + 6 = 90

4x = 84

x = 21
