Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, let's translate the statement into an equation.

  • Twice a number means 2x
  • is means equal =
  • 48 less than 4 times a number means 4x - 48
  • 2x = 4x - 48

2. (solving)

Step 1: Subtract 4x from both sides.

  • 2x - 4x = 4x - 48 - 4x
  • -2x = -48

Step 2: Divide both sides by -2.

  • \frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{-48}{-2}
  • x = 24

Step 3: Check if solution is correct.

  • 2(24) = 4(24)-48
  • 48 = 96-48
  • 48 = 48

Therefore, x = 24.

Evaluate The diagram below.<br> Given: straight lines AD and CE.<br> HELP ASAP‼️‼️
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

<CFD =62°

<AFB= 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

here you have a vertical angle, so to simply put it the answer on one side of the angle is the same answer for the opposite side of the angle. knowing this, angle <AFE is 62° and <CFD is on the opposite side making the angle the same(62°). the opposite angle of <AFB is <EFD which is 118° but both <AFB and <AFC equal 118° so you subtract 118° to <AFC degree which is 28° and you get 90°.

i hope this makes sense im not good at explaining. if anyone has a better explanation feel free to correct me.
