Answer:

From the above attachment we can conclude that,

$(2x - 10)° + (4x + 16)° = 180° \\ 2x - 10 + 4x + 16 = 180 \\ 2x + 4x - 10 + 16 = 180 \\ 6x + 6 = 180 \\ 6x = 180 - 6 \\ 6x = 174 \\x = \frac{174}{6} \\ \boxed{x = 29}$

Therefore, the value of x is 29

<u>x = 29</u> is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x - 10 + 4x + 16 = 180 \\ \\ 4x - 2x + 16 + 10 = 180 \\ \\ 2x = 180 - 26 \\ \\ 2x = 154 \\ \\ x = \frac{154}{2} \\ \\ x = 77$

If 2x + 5 = 8x, then 12x = ?A.5B.10C.15D.20

butalik [34]

<h2>Answer:</h2> $10.\text{ Option B is correct}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Given the equation expressed as:

$2x+5=8x$

First, we need to calculate the value of "x" from the given expression.

Step 1: Given the equation 2x + 5 = 8x

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides:

$\begin{gathered} 2x+5-5=8x-5 \\ 2x+\cancel{5}-\cancel{5}=8x-5 \\ 2x=8x-5 \end{gathered}$

Step 3: Subtract 8x from both sides

$\begin{gathered} 2x-8x=8x-8x-5 \\ -6x=\cancel{8x}-\cancel{8x}-5 \\ -6x=-5 \end{gathered}$

Step 4: Divide both sides by -6

$\begin{gathered} \frac{-6x}{-6}=\frac{-5}{-6} \\ x=\frac{5}{6} \end{gathered}$

Step 5: Get the value of 12x. Substitute x = 5/6 into the expression to have:

$\begin{gathered} 12x=12(\frac{5}{6}) \\ 12x=\cancel{12}^2(\frac{5}{\cancel{6}^1}) \\ 12x=2\times5 \\ 12x=10 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the value of 12x is 10

<em>Identify</em>

3x + 5(2 + x) = 4x - 7

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

[Distributive Property] Distribute 5: 3x + 10 + 5x = 4x - 7
[Addition] Combine like terms: 8x + 10 = 4x - 7
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4x on both sides: 4x + 10 = -7
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 10 on both sides: 4x = -17
[Division Property of Equality] Divide 4 on both sides: x = -17/4
