Hello.
Taking a look at our screenshot provided, we can conclude that we need to find the missing angle degree out of 90 degrees, as we are dealing with a right angle.
Let's set this up as an Algebraic formula and solve for the variable;
5x + 15 + 50 = 90
First, let's combine like-terms (15 and 50).
5x + 65 = 90
Now, isolate our variable by subtracting 65 from each side of the equation.
90 - 65 = 25
65 - 65 = 0
5x = 25
Now, divide both sides by 5 to solve for x, our missing angle degree.
x = 5
Your answer is A.) 5
I hope this helps!
This doesn't make sense ask another
Answer: The numbers are: <u>x = 34, y = 12</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say the numbers are x and y. The two equations are:
x+y=46
x= 3y-2
Next you use substitution for x in the first equation which brings you to
3y-2 + y = 46 which simplyfies to:
4y - 2 = 46
4y = 48
48 / 4 = 12
y = 12
Then you plug back y=12 in either of the equation to solve for x:
x = 3y - 2
x = 3(12) - 2 = 36 - 2 = 34
x = 34, y = 12
Answer:
I prefer solving problens with fractions because it's easier to add them and you can turn them in to mixed numbers. Hope this helps you!
