Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

I take it that the question is What is the value of x.

... Every triangle has a measure of 180o so that is what is on the right side of the equation.

... the Vertex of an isosceles triangle has a unique value. There is only one angle with a measure of 42.

... The Base angles are equal. And there are 2 of them.

Equation

2x + 3 + 2x + 3 + 42 = 180o      

Solution

Combine like terms

2x + 2x + 3 + 3 + 42 = 180  Show the like terms as 1 term for the xs and 1 for the pure numbers on the left.

4x + 48 = 180   Subtract 48 from both sides

4x = 180 - 48    combine

4x = 132            Divide by 4

4x/4 = 132/4

x = 33

Answer

x = 33

2x + 3 = 2*33 + 3 = 69

So the three angles are

69 + 69 + 42

Check

69 + 69 + 42

138 + 42

180 as it should.

Serjik [45]

Answer:

Yes, they are being underrepresented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

The Population of African Americans in St. Louis suburbs 5.7% . Therefore we can assume that the school system should have about 5.7% of their teachers being African Americans. Since we are given the amount of total teachers and the amount of African American teachers in the school, we can calculate the percent of African American teachers by using a simple Rule of Three property (demonstrated in the picture below).

405 Total teachers   ⇒   100%

15 African American   ⇒   x

\frac{15*100}{405} = x

3.7% = x

We can see that approximately 3.7% of the School Teachers are African Americans, So we can say they are being underrepresented.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
