All the angles in a triangle equal 180 degrees so 128 + (5x+10) + 9x = 180
Group the like values to get 138 + 14x = 180
Subtract 138 from 180 to get 14x = 42
Divide 42 by 14 to get x = 3
Therefore x = 3
Answer:
The smallest positive number is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
let the smallest positive number = x
45 is a multiple of 9 ⇒ 9 x 5 = 45
the next multiple of 9 after 55 is 63
= 9 x 7
= 63
Thus, x + 55 = 63
x = 63 - 55
x = 8
The greatest common factor of 45 and 63 = 9
Therefore, the smallest positive number is 8
The answer is A for the correct answer
Well 9 3/4 is 9.75 and 27 1/2 is 27.5 so if we take 27.5 and subtract 9.75 you get 17.75 and then all you have to do is 17.75/2 which is 8.875 so the answer would be 8.875 inches on either side
