The integers are 29 and 30.
Basically you know that the 2 wholes from both sides cancel out.
Set up the equation, 5/8 = 3/12 + 3/x
3/x = 5/8 - 3/12
Set them to have a common denominator, 3/x = 15/24 - 6/24
3/x = 9/24
Simplify 9/24 and you will get 3/8
3/x = 3/8
Obviously this means x = 8

Answer:
180, 180, 148, 180, 148
Step-by-step explanation:
The two rules in play here are ...
- the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°
- the angles of a linear pair are supplementary (they total 180°)
__
The first of these rules answers the first two questions:
- interior angles total 180°
- angles 1, 3, 4 total 180°
We can subtract the measure of angle 1 from both sides of the previous equation to find the sum of the remaining two angles.
- angles 3 and 4 total 148°
The second rule answers the next question:
- angles 1 and 2 total 180°
As before, subtracting the value of angle 1 from both sides of the equation gives ...
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Of course, the subtraction property of equality comes into play, also. For some unknown, X, you have (in both cases) ...
X + 32° = 180°
X +32° -32° = 180° -32° . . . . . . subtraction property of equality
X = 148° . . . . . . . . simplify
In the first case, X is the sum of angles 3 and 4. In the second case, X is angle 2 only.
