Answer:
x = 14
∠ABD = 66
∠DBC = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the two angles is 90 degrees, so:
3 (x + 8) + 2x - 4 = 90 (distribute 3)
3x + 24 + 2x - 4 = 90 (simplify)
5x + 20 = 90 (subtract 20 from both sides)
5x = 70 (divide both sides by 5)
x = 14
∠ABD = 3 (x + 8) (plug in 14)
∠ABD = 3 (14 + 8) simplify
∠ABD = 3 (22)
∠ABD = 66
∠DBC = 2x - 4 (plug in 14)
∠DBC = 2(14) - 4 (simplify)
∠DBC = 28 - 4
∠DBC = 24
To check, 66+24=90.
Answer:
The answer I got was
3(-26+8) = -54
2(-26)-4 = -56
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x+8)=2x−4
(3)(x)+(3)(8)=2x+−4(Distribute)
3x+24=2x+−4
3x+24=2x−4
Then subtract 2x from each side
Once then you have X substitute that number with X and you should get your answer.
So do 3(-26+8) and then 2(-26)-4 which then
3(-26+8)=
2(-26)-4 =
