Question

Help please i genuinely cant

Answer 1

Part A: 3x + 36 = 180

Part B: x = 48

Explanation:

A straight line is equal to 180 degrees. Knowing this, both 3x and 36 should be equal to 180. Write an equation:

3x + 36 = 180

Solve the equation:

3x + 36 = 180

Subtract 36 from both sides

3x = 144

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable

x = 48

Check your work:

3(48) + 36 = 180

144 + 36 = 180

180 = 180

Correct
