Answer:

x=7, x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by putting the whole equation to one side: x2-5x=14 ----> x2-5x-14=0
Next, factor the equation: x,x -7,2 ----> (x-7)(x+2)=0
Now, solve both equations: x-7=0....x=7 AND x+2=0.....x= -2
Plug both in to make sure that they are correct....both are correct

The measure of one of the angles in a linear pair is 24 less than the measure of the other angle. Find the measure of each angle

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Angle one = 78°

Angle two = 102°

Step-by-step explanation:

180° - 24° = 156°

156° / 2 = 78°

78°+24° = 102°

The second angle can also be found by subtracting 78° from 180°

180° - 78° = 102°

Find the value of x.

lesantik [10]

The triangle is always 180 degrees
6x + 8x + 7 + 8x - 3 = 180
Simplify
22x + 4 = 180
Minus 4 from both sides
22x = 176
Divide 22 by both sides
X = 8
