Question

Plz help this is due in an hour

Answer 1

2X+3+X-6 =180

3X-3+3=180+3

3X=183

X=61

Answer 2

x = 61

Explanation:

The angles shown form a straight line

Angles that form a straight line add up to equal 180

Hence, 2x + 3 + x - 6 = 180

( note that we just created an equation that we can use to solve for x )

We now solve for x using the equation created

2x + 3 + x - 6 = 180

step 1 combine like terms

2x + x = 3x

3 - 6 = - 3

we now have 3x - 3 = 180

step 2 add 3 to each side

-3 + 3 cancels out

180 + 3 = 183

we now have 3x = 183

step 3 divide 3 from each side

3x / 3 = x

183 / 3 = 6

we're left with x = 61
