Answer:

The value of x is 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

X° + 90° = 129° (Exterior angle property)

x° = 129° - 99° = 30°

x° = 30°

Hope it helps:)

What do I do to figure out this problem: 3x+8=26+x

Gnom [1K]

3x + 8 = 26 + x

The first thing you need to do is understand what you're looking for ...
what a 'solution' means, what it looks like, and how you even know
when you have it. I'm not sure you're there yet.

The 'answer' or the 'solution' to the problem is a number. It's the number
that 'x' must be in order for that line at the top to be a true statement. There's
only one possibility.

To find it, you can do anything you want to either side of the problem, as long as
you do exactly the same thing to the other side too. With that ability, here's how
to 'figure out the problem', and find the answer:

The original problem: 3x + 8 = 26 + x

Subtract 8 from each side:

3x = 18 + x

Subtract 'x' from each side:

2x = 18

Divide each side by 2 :

x = 9 .

That's what the answer looks like, and that's what the answer is.

' 9 ' is the ONLY number you can write in place of 'x' in the problem,
and have the problem read true.

I'll show you what I mean. Let's take the original problem

 3x + 8 = 26 + x

and let's write ' 2 ' wherever we see 'x' :

3 (2) + 8 = 26 + 2

3 (2) means 3 times 2, and that's 6 .
So now we have

6 + 8 = 26 + 2

Do the addition on each side, and we have

14 = 28 .

That's nonsense. 14 is not equal to 28 . The reason that happened
is because we put the wrong number in place of 'x' . When we put the
correct number in place of 'x', the left side will be equal to the right side.
To 'figure out the problem' means to find out what that number must be.
For this particular problem, it's 9 .

1615/170 simplify show work

Sloan [31]

1615/170

We first need to convert this into a proper fraction. Which means that the denominator must be larger than the numerator for it to be proper. Also, since 1615 is BIGGER than 170, we will end up with a mixed fraction. A mixed fraction always has a whole number.

1615 can go into 170 how many times?

9 times

170*9 = 1530

Now subtract.

1615 - 1530 = 85

Now we have our mixed fraction: 9 85/170

Now we must simplify the fraction.

85/5 = 17
170/5 = 34

17/34 is the smallest possible fraction we can get.

9 17/34

Final answer: $9 \frac{17}{34}$
