The variable for Maggie will be M and 2x-3 be her younger brothers age (<u>Twice her age). </u>We then would turn this into <u>an algebraic problem</u>. (m+2x -3=24).

3x-3=24, we would add 3 to both sides (-3 and 24). 24 + 3 equals 27, we now have to divide -3x and 27 on both sides, which equals <u>9. (x=9)</u>

What is the measure on an interior angle of this polygon?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

a) 160°

b) 18 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angle = 180 - exterior

= 180 - 20 = 160°

Each angle of a regular polygon:

[(n-2)×180]/n = 160

180n - 360 = 160n

20n = 360

n = 18

Alternate approach for no. of sides:

360/n = each exterior angle

360/n = 20

n = 360/20 = 18

Solve the following equation for x: 6x-16=14
Ivenika [448]

To solve the equation for x, first, we add 16 from both sides of the equation:

\begin{gathered} 6x-16+16=14+16, \\ 6x=30. \end{gathered}

Now, we divide by 6:

\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{30}{6}.

Finally, we get that:

x=5.

Answer:

x=5.
