Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If Anna's age is represented by A, then 12 more than Anna's age will be ...
12 + A
Jason's age is said to be 12 more than Anna's age, so ...
J = 12 + A
__
The sum of their ages will be J + A. That is said to be 50, so ...
J + A = 50
_____
These equations can be solved by using the first to substitute for J in the second.
(12 +A) +A = 50
2A = 38 . . . . . . . . subtract 12
A = 19 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
J = 12 +19 = 31 . . . find Jason's age
Jason is 31; Anna is 19.
Answer:

x = 45
E
Step-by-step explanation:
Theorems you need:
- The measures of 2 adjacent angles that form a straight line with the outer sides add up to 180°.
- The sum of the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180° ((n-2)×180).
#5
Knowing those, you first want to find the triangle's 3 interior angles.
The angles <QSO & <QSR are adjacent (share a common ray) and form a straight line with the outer rays, therefore they add up to 180.
So m<QSO+m<QSR=180.
Rewrite the equation: m<QSR=180-m<QSO
Plug the known value in: m<QSR=180-(3x-17)
Distribution & Combining like terms: m<QSR=180-3x+17=197-3x
Now solve for the 3 interior angles to equal 180.
(197-3x)+(25)+(2x+3)=180
Combine like terms: 225-x=180
Isolate the x term (-225 to both sides): -x=180-225=-45
Isolate the x (×-1 to both sides):
x=45
