Answer:

x =4

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2x =12 (Subtract 5x - 2x and you'll get 3x)

3x = 12 (Now divide by 3 from both sides to get x)

x = 12/3 (Now that you got x, you want to simplify)

x = 4 (12 divided by 3 is 4)

Answer:

$\boxed{GJ = 76 \ degrees}$

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Angles of intersecting chords theorem:

∠GAJ = $\frac{1}{2} (BD+GJ)$

Where ∠GAJ = 50 , BD = 24 and GJ = ?

50 = $\frac{1}{2} (24+GJ)$

Multiplying both sides by 2

100 = 24 + GJ

GJ = 100-24

GJ = 76 degrees

Set up a ratio:

240/180 = X/36

Cross multiply:

240 * 36 = 180x

8640 = 180x

Divide both sides by 180:

X = 8640 / 180 = 48

The person would weigh 48 pounds.
