Answer 1

Answer:

5.21212121

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to keep in mind is that a line is equal to 180. The first thing you sould start off by doing is write 17x+2+16x+6. Then to make it easier combine the like terms. Both combine 17x + 16x to get 33x, and 6 and 2 to get 8. Now the problem should be 33x + 8 = 180. Next we will take away 8 from both sides. This should eliminate 8 for us and give us 33x=180 as our next problem. Finally you will do the opposite of multiplying which is diving. 33 divided by itself gives us 0. So we will divide 172 by 33 to get 5.21212121.
