Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that lines AB and CD are straight lines that intersects at O, it follows that the pair of opposite vertical angles formed are congruent.

Thus,

<AOD = <BOC

<AOD = 152°

<BOC = 3x + x + (x + 12) (angle addition postulate)

<BOC = 5x + 12

Since <AOD = <BOC, therefore,

152° = 5x + 12 (substitution)

152 - 12 = 5x (subtraction property of equality)

140 = 5x

140/5 = x (division property of equality)

28 = x

x = 28

Answer:

y=50

x=30

z=100

Step-by-step explanation:

x+20=y

2y=z

x+y+z=180

x+y+2y=180

3y+x=180

-y+x=-20

4y=200

y=50

x=30

z=100

Simplify. (−5p4z6u)3

sineoko [7]

The rules of exponents tell you that you can distribute the exponent to each of the factors. When one already has an exponent, those exponents multiply.
$(-5p^{4}z^{6}u)^{3}=(-5)^{3}\cdot(p^{4})^{3}\cdot(z^{6})^{3}\cdot u^{3}\\\\=-125p^{4\cdot 3}z^{6\cdot 3}u^{3}\\\\=-125p^{12}z^{18}u^{3}$
