Answer:
x = 58
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle = 1/2(difference of intercepted arcs)
51 = 1/2 ( 160 -x)
Multiply each side by 2
2*51 = 160-x
102 = 160-x
Subtract 160
102 -160 = -x
-58 = -x
58 =x
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
For algebra always start by rewriting it.
4+x+2-2x=5
Then ask yourself is there any like terms we can combine, and here yes there is. 4 and 2 and x and -2x. Now lets combine them and rewrite.
6-x=5
Now lets get x alone and the quickest way is to subtract 6 to the other side
6-x=5
-6 -6
-x=-1
Now the two negatives cancel out as you would divide both sides by the coefficient -1 to get positive x alone. We can make this easier by just canceling out the negatives.
Your answer is
x=1

Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to put these in the form f(x) = 0. We can do that by subtracting the right side. Common factors can be cancelled from numerator and denominator, provided they are not zero.

_____
If you leave the numerator as (x-3)(4-x), then there are two values of x that make it zero. Because x=3 makes the equation "undefined", it cannot be considered to be a solution.
