Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
A circle has a total of 360 degrees. Because central angles are congruent to the degree measures of their arcs, and because of vertical angles we can construct the equation :
5x+37+5x+37+3x-9-9=360
We can simplify this to :
8x+28=360
Subtract 28, divide 8, and x is 19
Answer:
population mean
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us suppose two years ago my brother's age was x years
Then, my age was 3x
Three years from now, my brother's age will be (x +2+3) = (x+5) years
And my age will be (3x+2+3) = (3x+5) years
But it is given that i will be twice as old as my brother.
So, 2(x+5)= (3x+5)
or, x= 5 years
So my brother's present age is 5+2= 7 years
And my age is 5*3+2= 17 years
4a-9b=22
substitute b=-2
4a -9(-2) = 22
4a +18 =22
subtract 18 from each side
4a = 4
divide by 4
a =1
Choice C
Addition is needed because of the subtraction sign.
