Algebra.Com's Answer #249021 by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! the measure of an angle is 30 more times than 5 times its supplement. \n" ); document.write( " find the measure of each angle. \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Let x = the angle \n" ); document.write( "then \n" ); document.write( "(180-x) = it's supplement \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Write an equation for the statement: \n" ); document.write( "\"the measure of an angle is 30 more times than 5 times its supplement\" \n" ); document.write( "x = 5(180-x) + 30 \n" ); document.write( "x = 900 - 5x + 30 \n" ); document.write( "x + 5x = 900 + 30 \n" ); document.write( "6x = 930 \n" ); document.write( "x = \n" ); document.write( "x = 155 degrees is the angle \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "See that's true \n" ); document.write( "155 = 5(180-155) + 30 \n" ); document.write( "155 = 5(25) + 30; confirms our solution of x = 155 \n" ); document.write( " |
