Answer=18
First step combine the positive like terms
16+8+6

\/
30
Second step is to combine negative like terms with 30
30-3-9
When you do this you add 9 and 3 together since they are similar to each other so it equals 12 there for the equation becomes.....
30-12
Final answer 18
Answer: b. 160
Step-by-step explanation: just took the test
We know that AB and CD are parallel. This allows many assumptions.
From that we know that angle A and angle D are congruent.
That means that x + 8 = 2x - 22 and we can solve for x
x + 8 = 2x - 22
x + 30 = 2x
30 = x or x = 30
We know from the figure that angle B is x or now that we solved for x is 30 degrees. Also, we know that both angle A and angle D are 38 degrees. Now we can solve for the vertical angle E which has a measure of y degrees. A triangle has the sum of its angles equal to 180 degrees.
We can set up an equation like this 30 + 38 + y = 180
30 + 38 + y = 180
68 + y = 180
y = 112 degrees
That is how you would solve this problem
