Answer:
x = 24.5
Step-by-step explanation:
the angles form a straight line, and a straight line equals to 180°
=> (5x + 8) + (3x - 24) = 180
=> 8x = 196
=> x = 24.5
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start solving until we get stuck,
6|x|+25=15
Subtract 25 from both sides
6|x|+25-25=15-25
Subtract
6|x|=-10
Divide both sides by 6
6|x|/6=-10/6
Divide
|x|=-10/6
We get stuck here, we need x to be negative but we cant have a negative x since we have absolute value. This means the answer is b.
