Answer:

Point T is the right angle of the triangle, so RTS = 90 degrees

8x + 18 = 90 (degrees)

8x = 72

x = 9 degrees

∠EFG and ∠GFH are a linear pair, m∠EFG=3n+23, and m∠GFH=2n+32. What are m∠EFG and m∠GFH?

NARA [144]

the measures of the angles are:

m∠EFG = 98°
m∠GFH = 82°

<h3>How to find the measures of the angles?</h3>

Two angles are a linear pair if their measures add up to 180°.

Then we will have that:

∠EFG + ∠GFH = 180

Here we know that:

m∠EFG=3n+23

m∠GFH=2n+32

Replacing that we get:

3n + 23 + 2n + 32 = 180

5n + 55 = 180

5n = 180 - 55 = 125

n = 125/5 = 25

Then the measures of the angles are:

m∠EFG=3n+23 = 3*25 +23 = 98°

m∠GFH=2n+32 = 2*25 + 32 = 82°

Write as an expression: a number that is equal to twice as much as x

lesantik [10]

Let's call the number we're looking for $y$ . We know that $y$ is twice as much as $x$ .

Twice as much as a number simply means the double of that number, and in turn the double of a number means to muliply that number by 2.

So, in order to obtain $y$ , you have to multply $x$ by 2. In formula, you have

$y = 2\cdot x$ or simply $y = 2x$
