Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
I've attached my work
- im yellow is what the name of the angle is
- in green is what to do with it
- In blue is me checking my work by plugging x back in
Please give me feedback on my repsomse by commenting,
any way i can improve showing my work?
Hope it helps, let me know if you have questions !
Have a nice rest of your day :)
Answer:
supplementary angles add up to 180°
given y=65° thus...
x+y=180°
x + 65°=180°
x=180°- 65°
x=115°
The function notation f(x)=2x-4 means replace the x on the right-hand side with the value in parentheses on the left.
For example, f(y)=2y-4; f(4)=2(4)-4=4; f(1)=2(1)-4=-2 and so on.
The same principle applies to g(x), for example
g(2)=4(2^2)-3=13,
g(x+1)=4(x+1)^2-3=4(x^2+2x+1)-3=4x^2+8x+4-3=4x^2+8x+1
and so on.
(g of f)(x) is another way to write g(f(x)), therefore
g(f(x))
=g(2x-4) [because f(x)=2x-4
=4(2x-4)^2-3
=4(4x^2-16x+16)-3
=16x^2-64x+64-3
=16x^2-64x+61
3 consecutive means
x, x+1, x+2
OR
x, x-1, x-2
the equation based on givens and first equation is:
2(x) + 2(x+1) = 69 - (x+2)
4x + 2 = 67 - x
5x = 65
x = 13
so the largest would be x+2 or 15
