e.e thats the part that confuses me

darkknight:

all big angles are equal to each other, all small angles are equal to each other its 2 parallel lines intersected by a transversal

@florisalreadytaken wrote:
that is a straight line, which indicated that the angle is \( 180^o \) that said, we have: \[ 3x-26+2x+24=180 \]
straight line, the angle isn't 180. might be looking at the wrong angles

xXQuintonXx:

darkknight:

so you have \[3x-26=2x+24\] solve for x

I thought this was social studies

Florisalreadytaken:

oh nvm im wrong -- i just realised

darkknight:

big angles are equal to each other, you can't add them together and have it equal to 180

Florisalreadytaken:

yeye theyr eopposites

xXQuintonXx:

how would i start this?

get like terms on one side, subtract 2x by both sides and add 26 to both. One step at a time, you are finding x

xXQuintonXx:

3x + 2x - (26 + 24)

xXQuintonXx:

likes that?

darkknight:

where did the equal sign go???

xXQuintonXx:

it died ._,

darkknight:

seems legit

xXQuintonXx:

*3x +2x = 26 +24

darkknight:

you had to subtract 2x from both sides, other than that, correct

xXQuintonXx:

???

3x - 2x = 26+24

xXQuintonXx:

so 1x = 50

He's offline! Sorry, I was trying to get back but was answering a couple of other questions. Let's see what we have so far...\[3x−26=2x+24\]yes? okay you changed it so the variable stuff is on one end and the numbers/constants are on the other end.\[3x-2x=26+24\]after this, we would simplify and get:\[x=26+24=50\]Yes, you are correct!

xXQuintonXx:

so x=50?

kittybasil:

Correct! 🎉

xXQuintonXx:

and yea i noticed he went offline

thanks
