I need help! PLEASE HELPP PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

Part 1: 31x+25=180

part 2: x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 180° on a straight line, which is the base/ bottom line of the traingle (indicated by the arrow on the end).

so, 180-151= 29

29° is the third angle on the traingle.

now, there are 180° in a triangle, therefore to find an equation for x:

29+20x-3+11x-1= 180 (adding up all the angles and making it equal to 180°)

now simplify this equation to get:

31x+25=180 (PART 1)

to find x simply solve the equation:

31x=180-25

31x= 155

x= 155/31

x=5 (PART 2)
