Question

Please help me! I'm terrible at math

Answer 1

Answer:

(3.) x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the lines are parallel and cut by the same line, the angles within are equal as well.

Which means that...

Angle GE = Angle EFD

Therefore (2x-30) = (x + 15)

2x - 30 = x + 15

    +30       +30    (add 30 to both sides to get rid of the -30)

2x = x + 45

-x    -x                   (subtract x from both sides to get rid of the single positive x)

x = 45
