I suppose what makes this question annoying is that there is the question mark so what i'll do first is substitute the question mark with x. also, there are annoying parenthesis so we'll first eliminate the ones we don't need. now we just have to solve for x. -3.4 + (-8 + 2) = (x + (-8)) + 2 adding a negative number is subtracting that number so x + (-8) = x - 8 -3.4 + 2 - 8 = x - 8 + 2 -3.4 -6 = x - 6 x = -3.4 make sure you are aware that the negative sign belongs to the number after it so -2 + 4 is not -(2+4) = -6 but rather 4 - 2 = 2. let me know if you have any questions!

Find the solution to the equation algebraically. Check your answer. k - 16 = 4
vitfil [10]

Answer:

k= 20

You start with this equation:

k-16=4

Add 16 on both sides.

k=4+16

Simply.

k=20

If you want to check your answer, you can just plug 20 into where k is back into the equation:)

Hope this helps!

Q. Find the sum of interior angle of the given polygon. Work out the measure of the missing angle. *
SpyIntel [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of sides of the given polygon, n =5

Sum of interior angles =( n-2)180°

=( 5 - 2)180°

= 3*180°

= 540°

Missing angle, x = 540°- (100°+105°+110°+145°)

= 540°- 460°

= 80°

Translate into equation<br> Twelve less than the one- fifth of a number is -7
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

1/5x - 12 = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing says 12 less THAN. Normally, when you see something in word problems like "less than" it means you need to switch the places.

So rather than 12 - 1/5, it's 1/5 - 12.

1/5 of a number means you are multiplying that number by 1/5. we'll use x (or any letter really, doesn't matter) to represent the unknown number.

Remember that if a variable and number is written together, it means multiplication.

So, 1/5x - 12 = -7.

I need help on number 30.
Naily [24]

Answer:

X=35

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle M= 60 <-- because we know a triangle=180 and so far we have 40 and 80 in the triangle JKM, 60 degrees is needed to complete 180

The other side of angle M (in the triangle KML)= 120 <-- because we know that a straight edge is 180 degrees and to complete the 180, we need another 120 degrees

so, to find X we need to find how many degrees are needed to complete the 180 degrees of triangle KML

120+25= 145

180-145= 35
