[a] x = 175 - 7.5p
For a, we are isolating the x variable to one side of the equation.
0.4x + 3p = 70
0.4x = - 3p + 70
x = - 7.5p + 175
[b] x = 115
For b, we are solving for x when p = 8.
x = - 7.5p + 175
x = - 7.5(8) + 175
x = 115
Answer:
x = 14
Angle B = 121°
Angle C is 59°
Step-by-step explanation:
First we'll find x, then we'll find Angle B (by substituting in x), then we'll find Angle C (bc Angle B and C are supplementary--that us, they add up to 180°)
10x-19 = 7x+23 subtract 7x
3x-19 = 23 add 19
3x = 42 divide by 3
x = 14
Angle B is 10x-19, and if x=14, then its 10(14)-19
Angle B is 140-19
which is 121°
Angle B = 121°
Angle B and Angle C add up to 180°
121° + c = 180°
c = 180-121
Angle C is 59°
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct equation is</em></u>

solve for x
Multiply by 8 both sides to remove the fraction

subtract 15 both sides

divide by 8 both sides
