Answer:
x = -51
Explanation:
(89 - 6x) + (3x - 62) = 180
89 - 6x + 3x - 62 = 180
(89 - 62) - 6x + 3x = 180
27 - 3x = 180
-3x = 180 - 27
-3x = 153
x = 153 / -3
So, the solution to the equation is x = -51.
3 =x
The angles are opposite exterior angles and when the lines are parallel, the opposite exterior angles are equal.
89-6x = 3x+62
Subtract 62 from each side
89-6x-62 = 3x+62-62
27 -6x = 3x
Add 6x from each side
27-6x+6x= 3x+6x
27 = 9x
Divide each side by 9
27/9 = 9x/9
