Answer:
x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
"Less than" switches the way of the expression.
If the "less than" was not there it would have been:
9-x
"Less" means subtract so you would subtract x from 9.
Hope this helped!
The answer is around 79, but if you want to round it, you could round it up to 80.
Answer:
To find the measure of angle OPQ, we have two equations...
y+5x-17=180 because angles OPN and OPQ are supplementary...
AND
x+17+2x-4+y=180 because the total degrees of a triangle must add up to 180.
The equations...
5x+y=197
3x+y=167
solce the system of equations...
x=15
y=122
Since we wanted to solve for y, 122 is the answer.
The measure of angle OPQ is 122.
