Question

help please(ss below)

Answer 1

Answer 2

the two angles are equal 2x+6= x+9

Answer 3

ughhhh???? wrong problem xd

Answer 4

that was the other one snow lol

Answer 5

The angles shown are corresponding angles

Answer 6

o-o lol

Answer 7

if you didn't know corresponding angles are congruent.
That being said you could create an equation to solve for x .
Do you know how to create an equation knowing that the two angles are congruent?

Answer 8

._. ya lost me, maybe but i dont remember

Answer 9

ok so the angle that is defined by the expression "2x + 24" and the angle that is defined by the expression "3x - 26" are corresponding angles which are equal to each other. Knowing that they are EQUAL to each other, we want to create an equation so we can solve for x

Answer 10

how would i do that? would i combine like terms?

Answer 11

not exactly.
The expressions are EQUAL to each other because the angles are congruent
So the equation would be 2x + 24 = 3x - 26 because they are equal to each other

Answer 12

so the expression is 2x + 24 = 3x - 26

Answer 13

so do i have to make both sides equal 180?

Answer 14

No, you would then want to solve for x using basic algebra

Answer 15

Do you remember how to do that?

Answer 16

nope ._.

Answer 17

do i make it so they all = 180?

Answer 18

No, the expressions are equal to each other. So you want to make 2x + 24 equal to 3x - 26

Answer 19

so they both have to = the same number?

Answer 20

Correct!

Answer 21

We can do this by solving for x in the equation created (2x + 24 = 3x - 26)

Answer 22

So you said you don't remember how to solve for x, right?

Answer 23

x=50

Answer 24

Yes! Well done!

Answer 25

thanks xd
