Answer: x=120°

Step-by-step explanation:

What you are looking for is the value of the exterior angle of the regular polygon.

For a n-sided regular polygon, the external angle is given by the formula 360°/n.

Because the shape in this example is a regular triangle, the value of n is 3.

360°/n

=360°/3

=120°

Therefore, x=120°

Answer:

${3x}^{2} - 4x + 10 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(x - 2) {}^{2} + 6 \\ 3 \times x {}^{2} - 4x + {2}^{2} + 6 \\ 3x {}^{2} - 4x + 4 + 6 \\ {3x}^{2} - 4x + 10 = 0$

V=B+15
V+2B=180
Therefore:
3B+15=180
B=55
V=70

Check:
V+2B=180
70+2(55)=180
70+110=180
180=180. Checks.

6-5 solving rational equations 8/x+3=1/x+1

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

x = -5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

8/(x+3)=1/(x+1)

Using cross products

8*(x+1) = 1*(x+3)

Distribute

8x+8 = x+3

Subtract x from each side

8x-x +8 = x+3-x

7x +8 =3

Subtract 8 from each side

7x+8-8 = 3-8

7x = -5

Divide by 7

7x/7 = -5/7

x = -5/7
