Question

Please help me, i’ve tried solving it and i keep getting it wrong, i’ll give brainliest!

Answer 1

Answer:

m∠G = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles E and G are equal to each other, so we can set up an equation where both statements equal each other to solve for x.

$3x+11=5x-9$

We then combine like terms, so the equation becomes:

$3x-5x = -9-11$

Then we calculate it, giving us:

$-2x=-20$

From here, we divide both sides by -2 so we can isolate the x:

$\frac{-2x}{-2} = \frac{-20}{-2}$

The -2's cancel out, so we're left with:

$x = \frac{-20}{-2}$

Which equals:

$x = 10$

Answer 2

Answer:

G = 41

Step-by-step explanation:

Since G and E are parallel to each other, they have the same degrees.

5x - 9 = 3x + 11

Solution: Shift numbers to one side and numbers to another side.

3x to shifted to the left side, so it becomes negative. -9 is shifted to the right side, so it becomes positive.

5x - 3x = 9 + 11

2x = 20

x = 20 ÷ 2 = 10

Find G.

5x = 10 x 5 = 50

50 - 9 = 41°
