Hey there!

You can tell that the two angles are congruent because of the arc. So make the two angles each other.
3x-17=25-3x. Add 3x to each side. You get 6x-17=25. Add 17 to each side to get 6x=42. Divide each side by 6. You get x=7. So the value of x would be 7.

I hope this helps!

The sum of the number is 103.the second number is 4 times the third.the third number is 5 more then the first .what are the numb

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

13, 18, 72

Step-by-step explanation:

let x-5 represent the first number, since the first number is 5 less than the third number. let x represent the third number. let 4x represent the third number, since it's four times greater than the third number.

set up an equation, and make it equal to 103:

x-5+x+4x=103

solve:

6x-5=103

6x=108

x=18

so, the third number is 18.

the first number is equal to x-5, so:

18-5=13

the second number is equal to 4x, so:

4(18)=72

so, the three numbers are 13, 18, and 72.
