Question

HELP RIGHT NOW PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!! What is the value of x?

Answer 1

I’d start off by setting x, (x+12), and 100 to 180. They are are on a line and a line = 180 degrees.

So: 100+ x + (x+12) = 180
subtract 100 from both sides

x + x + 12 = 80
simplify by adding the two x’s equaling 2x +12= 80

subtract 12 from both sides giving you: 2x=68

divide by 2 and x = 34, (x+12) = 46

34+46+100= 180 degrees! meaning you now have your line :D hope this helps!

Answer 2

x = 34

Explanation:

Add together all three angles because together they equal 180 degrees

x + 12 + x + 100 = 180 Combine like terms

2x + 112 = 180

- 112 - 112 Subtract 112 from both sides

2x = 68 Divide both sides by 2

x = 34
