The product of x and 2 is less than or equal to 4

2x≤4

I'm not sure how else to help you in this situation, without you providing me with more information. If you want the solution for x, you would just divide both sides by the coefficient of the variable, or 2, resulting in the inequality:

x ≤ 2

Hope this helps! Comment if you need to add info or have any more questions about this problem.

Given:

A figure of a parallelogram.

The vertex angles are $(12b+8)^\circ,(5b+2)^\circ,2a^\circ$ .

To find:

The values of a and b.

Solution:

We know that the pairs of consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary angles. It mean their sum is 180 degrees.

$(12b+8)^\circ+(5b+2)^\circ=180^\circ$ (Supplementary angles)

$(17b+10)^\circ=180^\circ$

$17b+10=180$

Subtract 10 from both sides.

$17b=180-10$

$17b=170$

Divide both sides by 17.

$b=\dfrac{170}{17}$

$b=10$

Now,

$(5b+2)^\circ=(5(10)+2)^\circ$

$(5b+2)^\circ=(50+2)^\circ$

$(5b+2)^\circ=52^\circ$

And,

$(5b+2)^\circ+2a^\circ=180^\circ$ (Supplementary angles)

$52^\circ+2a^\circ=180^\circ$

$2a^\circ=180^\circ-52^\circ$

$2a^\circ=128^\circ$

Divide both sides by 2.

$a^\circ=\dfrac{128^\circ}{2}$

$a^\circ=64^\circ$

$a=64$

Therefore, the value of a is 64 and the value of b is 10.
