Question

What is the measure of the angle 20x + 5= 24x - 1

Answer 1

4x=4
x=4/4=1
All the best

Answer 2

20x +5 = 24x -1

add 1 to each side

20x+6 = 24x

subtract 20x from each side

6 = 4x

divide both sides by 4

x = 6/4 = 1.5

measure of angle: 20(1.5) +5 = 30+5 = 35 degrees

24(1.5) - 1 = 36-1 = 35 degrees
