This is the equation: 3x-2=5x+15 
<span>you combine like terms: 3x-3x-2=5x-3x+15 </span>
<span>the 3x on the left cancles out: -2=2x+15 </span>
<span>subtract 15 on both sides: -2-15=2x+15-15 </span>
<span>the 15 on the right cancles out:--17=2x </span>
<span>divide by 2: -17/2=2x/2 </span>
<span>x equals negative 8.5: x=-8.5</span>

During a period of 80 minutes, a music station played 8 minutes of commercials. What is the ratio of music they played to commer
igomit [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

80 minutes.......8 minutes played commercials....that means (80 - 8) = 72 minutes played music

so the ratio of music to commercials is : 72/8 which reduces to 9/1...so the ratio is 9:1 <=== ur answer

** pay attention to the wording, because if it would have asked for the ratio of commercials to music, it would have been 8/72....ratio would be 1:9

What is value of x? Please help! Will reward
vazorg [7]

x = 50

The angles shown are vertically opposite and thus equal

so 3x - 30 = 2(x + 10)

3x - 30 = 2x +20

subtract 2x from both sides

3x - 2x - 30 =  20

x - 30 = 20

add 30 to both sides

x = 20 + 30 = 50

Need help plzzz???!?????!
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

137

Step-by-step explanation:

First start with what you know.  The measure of the interior angles of a triangle total to 180^{o} so 51 + 2x + x = 180, then 51 + 3x = 180, 3x = 129, so

x = 43, the exterior angle is on a straight line with x so

x + exterior angle = 180 [since they are supplementary], since x = 43 then

43 + e = 180, so e has to be 137
