Since angle A = Angle B, I believe you would write it out like this:
6x+12=3x+63
subtract 3x from both sides, then subtract 12 from both sides.
3x=51
divide 51 by 3 to find x.
x=17
Now to find the measure of angle A.
A = 6(17)+12
A = 102+12
A = 114, angle A is 114 degrees.
You reverse the inequality when you divide both sides by a negative number.
example:
-5x>45 (you divide both sides here by -5 to get the value of x)
answer:
x<9 (notice inequality has been has been reversed)

Answer:
d) 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Santiago be x years old today.
Then Juan is x + 8 years old.
In 4 years Santiago will be x + 4 years.
In 4 years Juan will be x + 12 years.
From the given information:
x + 4 = 0.5(x + 12)
x = 0.5x + 6 - 4
0.5x = 2
x = 2 / 0.5
x = 4.
