Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, subtract 2 from both sides

2 (-2) - x = (5/8) - 2

-x = 5/8 - 2

Make sure they have the same denominator. Remember that what you multiply to the denominator, you multiply the numerator:

-x = 5/8 - 16/8

-x  = - 11/8

Isolate the x. Divide -1 from both sides

(-x)/-1 = (-11/8)/-1

x = 11/8

11/8 is your answer for x

If ΔABC ≌ ΔRPQ , ∠A = 35˚, ∠C=75˚ , Find the measure of ∠Q. *​
Norma-Jean [14]
<h3>Answer:  angle Q = 75 degrees</h3>

Explanation:

The order of ABC and RPQ is important so we can match up the angles like so

  • angle A = angle R .... first letters
  • angle B = angle P .... second letters
  • angle C = angle Q ... third letters

Meaning that angle Q = 75 since angle C is this measure.
