Answer:
<u><em>85 degrees</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle's angles must add up to 180 degrees.
50 + 45 = 95
180 - 95 = 85
x = 85
2x + 8y = 5
2/ 24x - 4y = -15
2x + 8y = 5
48x - 8x = -30
+
--------------------------
50x = -25
x = -1/2
2 * -1/2 + 8y = 5
-1 + 8y = 5
8y = 6
y = 6/8
y = 3/4
x = -1/2 y = 3/4
Distribute 2 to x and -2, and -6 to x and -2
2(x - 2) = 2x - 4
-6(x - 2) = -6x + 12
2x - 4 = 4x - 6x + 12
Simplify. Combine like terms
2x - 4 = (4x - 6x) + 12
2x - 4 = -2x + 12
Isolate the x. Add 4 to both sides, and 2x to both sides
2x (+2x) - 4 (+4) = -2x (+2x) + 12 (+4)
2x + 2x = 12 + 4
Simplify
4x = 16
Isolate the x. Divide 4 from both sides
4x/4 = 16/4
x = 16/4
x = 4
4 is your answer for x.
