Answer:

(8 * x) + 2x = 60

8x + 2x = 60

10x = 60

/10 /10

x = 6

8 is a constant that is being multiplied by an unknown number which we will name x. It is then being added to two times the unknown number(x), so we multiply x by 2, which is 2x. The final product will be 60, so in the equation it'll then equal 60.

We consider "a number" to be a variable that withholds an unknown value, which is x (or any other variable you prefer).

Convert 153 degrees into radians to the nearest to decimals places

STatiana [176]

Since we know there are π radians in 180°, then how many radians are there in 153°?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
radians&de grees\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\pi &180\\
x&153
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\pi }{x}=\cfrac{180}{153}\implies \cfrac{\pi \cdot 153}{180}=x\implies \stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{17\pi }{20}}=x$
