Answers either A) 32 or B) 46.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

thats an eyesore fer sure, but you just need to add up the given measures to 360 and solve for x

OpenStudy (amistre64):

then yvz +zvx = 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(15x-1)+8x-2+7x+15+3x+5

OpenStudy (amistre64):

you can prolly cut down a bit by adding the "bottom" 3 angles to 180 just as well

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

33x oops.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my answers 46,. Correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think i got the answer right

OpenStudy (amistre64):

(3x+5) + (7x+15) + (8x-2) = 180 18x+5+15-2 = 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

was 46 my answer?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

18x +18 = 180 18(x +1) = 180 x +1 = 10 x = 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?? 9 isnt an option..

OpenStudy (amistre64):

(15x - 1) + A = 180 A = 180 - (15x - 1) A = 180 - (15(9) - 1)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

of course 9 isnt an option ... its not asking you the value of x, but you need to determine x to solve the rest of it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

46 was my answer. -_- ..

OpenStudy (amistre64):

46 is correct yes
