These techniques for elimination are preferred for 3rd order systems and higher. They use "Row-Reduction" techniques/pivoting and many subtle math tricks to reduce a matrix to either a solvable form or perhaps provide an inverse of a matrix (A-1)of linear equation AX=b. Solving systems of linear equations (n>2) by elimination is a topic unto itself and is the preferred method. As the system of equations increases, the "condition" of a matrix becomes extremely important. Some of this may sound completely alien to you. Don't worry about these topics until Linear Algebra when systems of linear equations (Rank 'n') become larger than 2.
Answer:
1. 180
2. x = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
1. the sum of the interior angles of every triangle is always 180
2. using what we know from problem 1, we can create an equation:
x + 10 + 2x - 5 + 2x + 20 = 180
add like terms: 5x + 25 = 180
subtract 25 from both sides: 5x = 155
divide both sides by 5: x = 31
Answer:
180=2x+ 24( angles opposite to equal sides)
156/2=x
x=78
