It is equal to 26 if you didn’t understand you can ask more questions and I’ll help
Okay, first let's look at what they give us!
The measure of angle 2 is 3x + 1
Measure of angle 3 is 2x + 4
And they give us that one angle is right which means it is 90°
Now if we use what we know of triangles, we know that all the angles in a triangle add up to equal 180 which means if we add angle 2, angle 3, and the right angle together we should get 180. Let's write an equation for it:
3x + 1 + 2x + 4 + 90 = 180
First we will add together liked terms!
3x + 2x = 5x
1 + 4 + 90 = 95
This gets us:
5x + 95 = 180
Second, let's get rid of that 95 by subtracting it from both sides, after doing this it should leave us with:
5x = 85
Third we need to get the x by itself and we can do it by dividing both sides by 5 to get:
x = 17
Now the question asks to find the measure of angle 2, given that angle 2 is 3x + 1 all there is left to do is to plug in 17 for x!
3(17) + 1
51 + 2 to get us 52!
Answer: 52
Answer and explanation:
<u>You're trying to figure out the value of x</u>
<em>If g(x) = 14 then that means that 4x + 6 = 14</em>
4x + 6 = 14 <em>Solve for x</em>
- 6 - 6 <em>Subtract 6 from both sides to get 4x alone</em>
4x = 8 <em> Divide 4x by 4 and 8 by 4</em>
x = 2
<u>Plug in 2 to see if it properly works</u>
<em>g(2) must equal 14</em>
g(2) = 4(2) + 6
g(2) = 8 + 6
g(2) = 14
The answer would be C: 2
