Multiply the whole equation by 2. Since 2 is positive, we don't need to switch the inequality sign:

Subtract 3 from both sides:

Answer:
x = 4
m<cdb = 82
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle thm states that the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles:
7x + 2 + 17x = 98
24x + 2 = 98
24x = 96
x = 4
m<cdb =
y + 98 = 180
y = 180 - 98
y = 82
Given:
The recipe calls for
cup of chili powder.
Karl only wants to use half as much so it won’t be so spicy.
To find:
How much chili powder should Karl use?
Solution:
We have,
