Answer:

x = 16°

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment AB, segment DC and segment EC all intersect at point C.

Here, we are told angle DCE measures 148°.

This is a semi-circle, and the total angle of a semi-circle is 180°.

Which means, x+x+148 = 180

Solving for x, we have:

x+x+148 = 180

2x + 148 = 180

2x = 180 - 148

2x = 32

$x = \frac{32}{2}$

x = 16°

The value of x is 16°

Given the line below.

Elza [17]

The slope of that line is -1, so m = -1.

The point you were told to use is (-2,2), so point-slope form starts as:

( y - 2 ) = -1 • ( x - (-2) )

But we'd clean up that x-(-2) to be x+2.

y - 2 = -1 ( x+2 )

How to solve -2(-4f+5)=-7+2f-9

Damm [24]

Answer:

$f=\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-2(4f+5)=-7+2f-9$

First, use PEMDAS to distribute the -2 to the parenthesis.

$-8f -10 = -7+2f -9$

Combine like terms on the right side.

$-8f - 10 = -16+2f$

Now, you may either subtract the f's or the constants. I'll subtract the constants first, meaning I will add 10 to both sides.

$-8f = -6 + 2f$

Now subtract the 2f from both sides.

$-10f = -6$

Divide both sides by 10.

$f = \frac{-6}{-10}$

Simplify.

$f = \frac{3}{5}$

Solve the equation 2.7 + x = 17

olga55 [171]

Hello!

To solve this equation, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation to see what it equals.

As you can see, 2.7 is added. To get it onto the other side and cancel it from the one side, you will subtract it from both sides as shown below. Note that because of the commutative property, we can switch the places of 2.7 and x.

x+2.7-2.7=17-2.7 (Note that 2.7=2.7 is 0 in this equation.
x=14.3

Our solution is x=14.3

I hope this helped you learn how to solve equations a bit better!

Write an equation and solve for x.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles opposite to equal sides are equal .

30 + 30 + x = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}

60 + x = 180

x = 180 - 60

x = 120
