Answer:

6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

8.5 - (-4.8)

Let's focus on - (-4.8)

if a negative number is subtracted, it reverses itself

In other words, if a negative number is being subtracted, it is the same as being added as a positive number

So we change the equation to

8.5 + 4.8 = 13.3

Now we subtract 7 from 13.3

Since positive 7 is being subtracted, the rule for -4.8 does not apply to it

13.3 - 7 = 6.3

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

(3x-17)°+(x+40)°+(2x-5)°=180°[sum of angle of triangle]

6x°+18°=180°

6x°=180°-18°

x°=162°÷6°

x°=27°

Again,

=3x-17. 2x-5. x+40°

=3×27-17. =2×27-5. =27+40

=64°. =49°. =67°
