Answer:
x < 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Yup
25/5 = 5
and also
15/3 = 5
so
(3x+ 8)/5 = 4
3x + 8 = 20
3x = 12
x = 12/3
x = 4
answer is x = 4
Remark
Supplementary angles add up to 180o.
Givens
<1 = 124
<2 = 2x + 4
I imagine you are looking for either x or <2.
Equation
<1 + <2 = 180 Substitute the givens
124 + 2x + 4 = 180 Collect like terms on the left.
128 + 2x = 180 Subtract 128 from both sides
2x = 180 - 128 Collect like terms on the right
2x = 52 divide by 2
x = 52/2
x = 26 <<<<<<<<< answer
<1 = 124
<2 = 2x + 4 = 2*26 + 4
<2 = 52 + 4
<2 = 56 <<<<<<<< answer
We need choices if you want an exact answer.
To make the equation easier to look at change it to this:
y = 15 - 3x
To find the x intercept say y = 0.
0 = 15 - 3x
Subtract 15 from each side.
-15 = -3x
Divide each side by -3.
5 = x <–––– x-intercept
The y-intercept of the equation is 15.
Hope this helps!
