Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you are trying to use synthetic division for
divided by x-3
First
x -3 = 0 , make it equal to 0 and add 3 to both sides
x = 3
Then we write all the coefficients and continue with
a pattern of multiply by 3 and add to the next coefficient.
See attachment.
Since they're vertical angles, they're equal in degree measure
since they're equal, we can make the two expressions equal to each other
5a - 1 = 2a + 20
add 1 to both sides
5a = 2a + 21
subtract 2a from both sides
3a = 21
divide both sides by 3a
a = 7
now, plug the answer you found for a into one of the two expressions
5a - 1 becomes (5*7) - 1, which equals 34
to double check that they're equivalent (since they're vertical angles)
2a + 20 becomes (2*7) + 20, which equals 34
both angles are 34 degrees!

For the first one, 9 + x = 24, you'll need subtraction.
For the second one, 27x = 2673, you'll need division.
