Question

Find the x please!!!!

Answer 1

(38 - 5x)⁰ + 83⁰ + 24⁰ = 180⁰

<=> (38 + 83 + 24) - 5x = 180

<=> 145 - 5x = 180

<=> 5x = 145 - 180

<=> 5x = - 35

<=> x = - 7

Answer 2

Explanation:

All 3 angles add up to be 180 due to sum of angles in a triangle.

Given this fact,

`38 - 5x + 83 + 24 = 180 \\ 145 - 5x = 180 \\ - 5x = 180 - 145 \\ - 5x = 35 \\ x = 35 / - 5 \\ = - 7`
