Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem.

The sum of angles on a straight line is 180°.

( R ) and ( 2x + 5 ) are both on the same straight line.

Therefore:

Equation No. 1 -

R + 2x + 5 = 180

R = 180 - 2x - 5

R = 175 - 2x

Vertically opposite angles are equivalent to each other.

( R ) is vertically opposite ( 3x + 15 ).

Therefore:

Equation No. 2 -

R = 3x + 15

Substitute the value of ( R ) from the first equation into the second equation to solve for ( x )

R = 3x + 15

175 - 2x = 3x + 15

- 2x - 3x = 15 - 175

- 5x = - 160

x = - 160 / - 5

x = 160 / 5

x = 32

Next we will substitute the value of ( x ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( R ).

Equation No. 2 -

R = 175 - 2x

R = 175 - 2 ( 32 )

R = 175 - 64

R = 111

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the answer is:

R = 111

x = 32

Hope this helps! :)

Two vertical angles will always equal 180 degrees
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Hi there!

Vertical angles are angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect each other. The two pairs of opposite angles are equal to each other. The two pairs of neighboring angles are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

Solve the following equation by factoring 2x^2-5x-12=0
Korolek [52]
Answer: x = 4 and x = -3/2

Procedure:

1) Given: 2x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0

2) Multiply both sides by : 2(2x^2) - 2(5x) - 2(12) = 0

3) Rearrange: (2x)^2 -5(2x) - 24 = 0

4) Notice that the common factor is (2x)

5) Set the parenthesis with the common factor inside:

(2x     ) (2x     ) =0

6) The first sign is the same sign of the second term of the trinomial, which is negative, the second sign is the product of the signs of the second and the third terms of the polynomial, which is (-)*(-) = + (positive)

(2x - )(2x + ) = 0

7) find two numbers that sum up - 5x and its product is -24.

- 8 + 3 = - 5
(-8)(+3) = -24

=> the numbers in the factors are -8 and +3

(2x - 8) (2x + 3) = 0

That is the factored equation. Now you can solve

8) a) 2x - 8 = 0 => 2x = 8 => x = 8/2 => x = 4

b) 2x + 3 = 0 => 2x = - 3 => x = - 3/2

Answer: the two solutions are x = 4 and x = -3/2

Find the value of x pls help
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

x = 15°

Step-by-step explanation:

First Identify the angle of x by subtracting 180° - 120° = 60°

Always remember when you see a straight line the line measures 180°

So the angle of x = 60° but not the value of x so use the given equation to find the value of x

3x + 15 = 60°

3x  - 15 = -15°

3x = 45

x = 15°
