<h3>Answers:</h3><h3>x = 12</h3><h3>Angle B = 45 degrees</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Angles A and B are alternate exterior angles.

Due to the parallel lines, alternate exterior angles are congruent

A = B

5x-15 = 2x+21

5x-2x = 21+15

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

Use this x value to find the measure of angle B

angle B = 2x+21

angle B = 2*12+21

angle B = 24+21

angle B = 45 degrees

As a check,

angle A = 5x-15

angle A = 5*12+15

angle A = 60-15

angle A = 45 degrees

Since A and B are both 45 degrees, this confirms the correct x value

Triangle- interior angle<br> Please help !

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

x = 25

<B = 120 degrees

<C = 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Total angle measure of a triangle - 180 degrees

Add all the angles together to find the value of x

30 + 4x + 20 + x + 5 = 180

55 + 5x = 180

55 - 55 + 5x = 180 - 55

5x = 125

$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{125}{5}$

x = 25

<B = 4(25) + 20

<B = 100 + 20

<B = 120

<C = 25 + 5

<C = 30

Here are five number cards . 2,5,7,8,9 . One of the cards is removed and the mean average of the remaining four number cards is

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 5 number cards.

They are 2,5,7,8,9

Total of all numbers in the cards = 2+5+7+8+9= 31

One card is removed say with number x.

Now sum new would be =31-x .. i

Average of remaining 4 cards = 6

So sum of remaining 4 cards = 6(4) = 24 ... ii

i and ii represent the sum of remaining 4 cards. Hence they should be equal

31-x =24

Subtract 31 from both sides to get

-x=-7

Or x =7
