X=(180-50-55)
x=75°

I think the trick is to add the two middle terms together. (And the 2 end terms).
8 - 12x
The variable is x. The coefficient is - 12.
8 is a constant.
The coefficient always goes with a variable.
3x^2 + 2x + 5
Nothing can be combined. The leading coefficient is 3 (which goes with the greatest power of the variable x^2 in this case) and the other coefficient is 2. 5 is a constant.
Answer:
W = 4.95
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to start by writing down what you know, and forming a system of equations.
L= length W= width
2L+2W=14.7
L= 2.4
On the left side of the equation, you're adding all your side lengths, and on the right, is the total perimeter. (Also could be written L+L+W+W = 14.7)
You would then substitute L from the bottom equation into the top equation to get:
2(2.4) +2W=14.7
Solving:
4.8+2w=14.7
W= 4.95
To check your answer simply add all the sides together and make sure it equals your perimeter. You can also plug W and L back into the original equation.
