Question

I need help with this assignment.

Answer 1

x=3

z=112

Explanation:

9x-27 needs to be solved for x.

Set the equation equal to zero.

9x-27=0

Now add 27 to both sides.

9x=27

Divide both sides by 9

x=3

Plug 3 into 5x+53 to find the angle.

5(3)+53=15+53=68.

Since 5x+53 and Z are on the same line, that means, when added together, they equal 180 degrees. Subtract 68 from 180.

z=112
