What you can do is subtract 1x from each side
Then you subtract 3 from each side
Then it tells you x=2
Always put what you think x is back into the problem and see if it works out
Example on how you do it:
(x+5)=(2x+3)
5=(x+3)
2=x
pic the second one to your left and youll find ur answer
In the attachment this is how i did it! ~Best of Luck~
Answer:
The measure of angle JKP is 
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
we know that
The measure of the arc is equal to the measure of its central angle
so

and

step 2
Find the measure of the angle JKP
we know that
The measure of the inner angle is the semi-sum of the arcs comprising it and its opposite.

substitute the values

Answer: 17.5 or 35/2
Step-by-step explanation:
(If you change 4/5 to a decimal, it makes this easier. 4/5 would be 0.8.)
23.6 = (12 + x)*0.8
23.6 = 9.6 + 0.8x
14 = 0.8x
17.5 = x
17.5 as an improper fraction would be 35/2.
