The question gives you 4 different numbers that could be x, so you have to replace each x in each problem and solve. If the two answers are equivalent, that is your answer. For the first one, 6 times 2 is 12, minus 2 is 10. 5 times 2 is 10, plus 3 is 13. 10 is not equal to 13, so that is not the answer. For 5, 6 times 5 is 30, minus 2 is 28. 5 times 5 is 25, plus 3 is 28, so therefore the answer is x=5
Wouldn't it be answer b)?
Answer:
the retail price is $47.30
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 30 ∠A = 132 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the equations equal to each other to solve for x
5x - 18 = 3x + 42
-3x - 3x Subtract 3x from both sides
2x - 18 = 42
+ 18 + 18 Add 18 to both sides
2x = 60 Divide both sides by 2
x = 30
Now plug this into the equation for angle A
∠A = 5(30) − 18 Multiply
∠A = 150 - 18 Subtract
∠A = 132 degrees
