Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Two less than three times a number is 28

Let's break it up.

2 less than: -2

3 times a number: 3x (x is representing a number")

is 28: = 28

So, let's put that together.

Two less than three times a number is 28

3x - 2 = 28

Now, let's solve this.

First, let's isolate the x.

To do this, we must add 2 to each side.

3x - 2 = 28

+2           +2

3x - 2 + 2 = 3x

28 + 2 = 30

We have 3x = 30

Now, we must simplify.

To do this, we must divide each side by 3.

This, in term, will tell us what x equals.

3x = 30

---    ----

3      3

3x/3 = x

30/3 = 10

x = 10

Answer:

k = 73

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all the angles in a triangle is  180  degrees.

62 °  +  k +  45 °  =  180

Solve the equation for k

Add  62 °  and  45 °

k +  107  =  180

Move all terms not containing  C  to the right side of the equation.

Subtract  107  from both sides of the equation.

k  =  180  −  107

Subtract

k  =  73
