Answer:
D x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x+5)=3x+4x
Distribute the 3
6x +15 = 3x+4x
Combine like terms
6x+15 = 7x
Subtract 6x from each side
6x+15 -6x = 7x-6x
15 =x

The answer is 60% but you can make it higher if your teacher let's you correct it.
Answer:
80%
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 129.8 degrees, y = 50.2 degrees, x + y = 180
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say you have 2 supplementary angles, x and y
So x + y = 180
if x is 79.8 degrees less than the measure of a supplementary angle, then x = y - 79.8
Putting this into our x + y = 180 equation, we get
(y - 79.8) + y = 180
2y - 79.8 = 180
2y = 180 + 79.8
2y = 259.8
y = 259.8/2 = 129.9 degrees.
so x = 129.9 - 79.6 = 50.3 degrees.
See if it worked. x = 129.9 degrees, y = 50.3 degrees, x + y = 180 so we found the correct two angles! :-)
