Answer:
The correct answer is:
(7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52, or 8s+4 = 52.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since s is the son's age, "two less than seven times" the son's age would be represented by 7s-2. To represent this in 3 years, we would add 3: (7s-2)+3. In 3 years, the son's age, s, would be represented by s+3. We are told that the sum of these ages will be 52; this gives us (7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52.
To simplify this, combine like terms. 7s+s = 8s; -2+3+3 = 4. This gives us 8s+4=52.
You could roll a 6-sided die 3 times to simulate this. This is a good simulation because it has one side for each possible tool, and each roll is independent, just as selecting the tool with replacement would be.
Answer:
x=40
Step-by-step explanation:
Both angles are equal. So the equation needs to equal 156.
Just plug in points for x until the answer is 156.
In this case, when we plug in 40, it works!
