Answer: x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

X/12 + 1/3 = -5/3

Find the LCM of the left hand side of the equation:

x + 4/12 = -5/3

Then cross multiply

3(x + 4) = -5/3

Open the bracket

3x + 12 = - 60

Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation

3x + 12 - 12 = -60 - 12

3x = -72

Divide both sides by 3

x = -72/3

x = -24

Check:

-24/12 + 1/3 = -5/3

Find the LCM of the left hand side of the equation

-24 + 4/12 = -20/12

Divide by a common factor of 4

-20/12 = -5/3

What is the best approximation of the solutions to the system to the nearest integer values?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The first number in the couplet is the distance along the x-axis (i.e. distance from the y-axis).  We can read 0.8 from the graph.
The second number is the distance along the y-axis (i.e.distance from the x-axis).  We can read 6.7 from the graph.

So approximately, we have the point as (0.8, 6.7).
Round the numbers to the nearest integer and you'll get the required answer choice.

Answer:

150 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation below to find the sum of all the interior angles in this polygon:

(number of sides - 2)*180

number of sides = 6

(6-2)*(180) = 4*(180) = 720

Now that you know the total sum, subtract all other angles to find x:

720 - 90 - 162 - 101 - 96 - 121 = 150
