Help! Geometry! 5(x-2) = -2(x+6)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vanyuwa [196]2 years ago

Answer:

x= −2/7

i loveeeee mathhhhh have a great day :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(x−2)=−2(x+6)

(5)(x)+(5)(−2)=(−2)(x)+(−2)(6)(Distribute)

5x+−10=−2x+−12

5x−10=−2x−12

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

5x−10+2x=−2x−12+2x

7x−10=−12

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides.

7x−10+10=−12+10

7x=−2

Step 4: Divide both sides by 7.

7x/7=−2/7

x=−2/7

Find the measures of the four numbered angles
Genrish500 [490]
First, find out x
x+15+2x+15=180
3x+30=180
3x=150
x=50
so the two angels are x+15=65(let's name is ∠5 for convenience), and ∠6= 2x+15=115
notice the two inner lines are marked as congruent, so 
∠4=∠5=65
∠1=180-∠4-∠5=180-65-65=50
Name the right bottom angle ∠7, ∠3=∠7 and ∠3+∠7=the exterior angle 100 degree, therefore, ∠3=50
∠2+∠3=∠4, therefore, ∠2=∠4-∠3=65-50=15
∠1=50, ∠2=15, ∠3=50, ∠4=65
