Solve for a by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
a = 1
All the angles inside a triangle add up to 180°.
(2x + 15) + (5x + 5) + x = 180
8x + 20 = 180
8x = 180 - 20
8x = 160
x = 160/8
x = 20
the question is asking what angle B is,
B = 2(20) + 15
B = 40 + 15
B = 55°
Answer: Yes, add one more each time you add

Answer:
x = 59/7, y = -15/7
Step-by-step explanation:
4x= 2y + 38;
2 - 3y=x
We can substitute for x in the first equation since the second equation is solved for x
4(2-3y) = 2y+38
Distribute
8 - 12y = 2y+38
Add 12y to each side
8-12y+12y = 2y+12y+38
8 = 14y+38
Subtract 38 from each side
-30 = 14y
Divide by 14
-30/14 = y
-15/7 = y
Now solve for x
2 - 3y = x
2 - 3*-15/7 = x
2 +45/7 = x
14/7 + 45/7 = x
59/7 =x
Answer:
The roots are;
x = (2 + i)/5 or (2-i)/5
where the term i is the complex number representing the square root of -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to use the completing the square method to solve the quadratic equation;
f(x) = -5x^2 + 4x -1
Set the function to zero
0 = -5x^2 + 4x - 1
So;
-5x^2 + 4x = 1
divide through by the coefficient of x which is -5
x^2 - 4/5x = -1/5
We now take half of the coefficient of x and square it
= -2/5^2 = 4/25
add it to both sides
x^2 - 4x/5 + 4/25= -1/5 + 4/25
(x- 2/5)^2 = -1/5 + 4/25
(x - 2/5)^2 = -1/25
Take the square root of both sides
x - 2/5 = √( -1/25
x - 2/5 = +i/5 or -i/5
x = 2/5 + i/5 or 2/5 - i/5
