idk how they got that answer.. i have to show my work...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Are there any crazy facts relating those two angles in the diagram that you can think of?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Like:
"They add up to _________!"
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which question are we referring to?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
31

okay what about it??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What do the two angles in #31 add up to?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ummmm 812x degreees??? i'm not sure
OpenStudy (anonymous):
they're supplementary
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so they add to_________?

well idk
OpenStudy (anonymous):
180?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay so do i like divide that by 180?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
write an equation: ANGLE #1 + ANGLE #2 = 180

solve it for x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
once you know x, you can go back and find the value of either angle
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so its goanna be like 812x+2469x=180???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so i solve it by ???? idk adding them?

yep
OpenStudy (anonymous):
soo add the two x's?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
have you done any algebra?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what's x +x ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what's 2x +2x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
what's 5x + 200x ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
good. now divide by 3281 to find x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay umm i get 0.05486132277
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok, now use that value to go back and find whatever angle they were asking about...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ummm wait because i am sooo confusssed like idk how to get the nearest teneth of a degreee

@Algebraic! soooo your not goanna help me?? if you dont want to tell me just dont ignore me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
did you find the value of the angle you were asked to find by using the x you found?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nooooooo thats what i was trying to explain to you that i dont know how to do that
OpenStudy (anonymous):
plug in the value of x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
plug it in where?
Join the QuestionCove community and study together with friends!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
the angle
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so plug it in for?? 812x? or 2469x?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
whichever one you want to find. or both.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i'll go with the 812x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
plug in the wholee decimal number of the x i found?

yep
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay... i got 44.5 with some other numbers but i found my answer for a. now on to b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Algebraic! just one more to go b. pleasee help me
