Answer:
x = -11/9
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x+3)=-2(x-5)
Distribute
7x+21 = -2x+10
Add 2x to each side
7x+21 +2x = -2x+10+2x
9x +21 = 10
Subtract 21 from each side
9x +21-21 = 10-21
9x = -11
Divide each side by 9
9x/9 = -11/9
x = -11/9

Step-by-step explanation:
3+5=8
32÷8=4
3×4=12
Line CA is a straight line, meaning it adds up to 180°
Line BE splits the line into two supplementary angles, because when the two angles are added together they will equal 180°
Using the rule of supplementary angles, we can then make the equation 3x + 8x + 15 = 180
Now, simplify the equation by combining like terms
11x + 15 = 180
To solve, isolate x
11x + 15 = 180
11x = 165
x = 15
