Answer:

x= 8.5, 2x=17, (9x+5)=81.5

Explanation:

since the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees, you must add all of the angles and set them equal 180:


2x + 2(9x+5) = 180

next distribute the 2 to 9x + 5.


2x + 18x + 10 = 180

next combine like terms (2x and 18x) and subtract 10 from 180.


20x = 170

finally, divide 170 by twenty.


(20x = 170)/(20)\\,x=8.5

the final answer is x=8.5

once x is determined, you can solve 2x and 9x+5.


2(8.5)=17\\\\9(8.5) +5 =81.5
