Question

Solve for X then Solve for angles 7X-40 and 2X+60

Answer 1

X = 20

Angles are both equal to 100 degrees

Explanation:

Assuming that 7x-40 = 2x +60

1. Order of Operations

2. 5x = 100

3. divide 100 by 5

4. x = 20

5. Plug 20 into both equations

6. 7(20) - 40 = 100

2(20) + 60 = 100

7. Both angles are equal to 100 degrees
