Answer:

x = 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of any triangle must add up to 180°.  Since we have the expressions for each angle:  5x, 8x, and (2x +9), we can solve for the variable of 'x' by adding the expressions together and setting them equal to 180:

5x + 8x + (2x +9) = 180

Combine like terms:  15x + 9 = 180

Use inverse operations: 15x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9

                                                     15x = 171  or x = 11.4

Check:  5(11.4) + 8(11.4) + 2(11.4) + 9 = 57 + 91.2 + 22.8 + 9 = 180

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The answer is 17 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, first add all the fractions together.

1/5 + 2/5 + 4/5 = 1 2/5

Now add all the whole numbers together.

8 + 3 + 5 = 16

Now add the two together.

16 + 1 2/5 = 17 2/5

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Let the number be x

3.06% = 0.0306

The above statement is written as

0.0306x = 0.86

Divide both sides by 0.0306

x = 0.86/0.0306

<h2>x = 28.10</h2>
