We can round the check up to $20
15% of 20
= 0.15 x 20 = $3
The tip is about $3
"the difference of a number x and 4": x - 4
"is": =
"3": 3
Combine the terms so that it looks like the sentence numerically:
"the difference of a number x and 4 is 3": x - 3 = 4
x - 3 = 4 is your answer.
To solve for x:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Add 3 to both sides.
x - 3 = 4
x -3 (-3) = 4 (-3)
x = 4 - 3
x = 1
1 is your answer for x.

Answer:
105°
Step-by-step explanation:
Maps are usually oriented so that North is up. That means the southwest corner is below and to the left of the intersecting lines. Since numbered streets are usually parallel, we're to assume that W 22nd street is parallel to W 20th street. That makes Broadway a transversal of parallel lines, and it makes the angle of interest a corresponding angle to the one whose measure is shown.
In this (assumed) geometry, corresponding angles are congruent, so the angle of interest has measure 105°.
