The angles of a quadrilateral add to 360, so we can solve for x by adding the 4 angle measures together and setting it equal to 360:
90 + 140 + (x - 10) + (x - 20) = 360
Combine like terms:
230 + 2x - 30 = 360
200 + 2x = 360
200 - (200) + 2x = 360 - (200)
2x = 160
Divide both sides by 2:
2x/(2) = 160/(2)
x = 80
Remark
The trick to this question is realizing what you took 1/3 of. Did you take it of the 150000 or is it 1/3 of some total you have to find. I don't think you could come up with a third choice.
It turns out that the answer is 1/3 of a number you don't know.
Equation
(1/3) x = 150000 Multiply both sides by 3
3*(1/3) x = 150000 * 3
x = 150000 * 3
x = 450000
Conclusion
The amount the company makes is 450000 dollars / year.
sorry i had the wrong answer...
