Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear equation, and we will need to get the variable by itself.

Let's calculate!

$8+3x=14\\3x=14-8\\3x=6$

Now we divide both sides by 3. Dividing 3 by 3 is just 1, and we don't need to write the 1, and 6 divided by 3 is two! So your equation will look like this:

$3/3x = 6/3\\x=2\\$

Hope that helps! :)

One number is 8 less than a second number. Twice the second number is 52 more than 5 times the first. Find the smaller of the tw

JulijaS [17]

Let x and y be the two numbers.

x = y - 4

2y = 5x - 10

solve the system of equations:

2y = 5(y - 4) - 10

2y = 5y - 20 - 10

-3y = -30

y = 10

x = 10 - 4 = 6

In quadrilateral DBCA, name the angles which are consecutive with angle D.

lisov135 [29]

Answer: The consecutive angles with angle D are B and A.

Explanation:

It is given that DBCA is a quadrilateral. Since it is a quadrilateral it means the have 4 vertices and 4 angles D, B,C,A.

The angles are formed in the order of the figure name. If the quadrilateral name is DBCA, So the order of the angles are D,B,C,A. It means the angle immediate after D is B, the angle immediate after B is C, the angle immediate after C is A and the angle immediate after A is D.

If the quadrilateral name is DBCA it means the sides are DB, BC, CA and AD as shown in the figure.

Consecutive angles of D means the angle immediate before and after the angle D.

In the figure there are some types of quadrilateral and from the figure we can easily noticed that the consecutive angles with angle D are B and A.
