Answer:
For the first: [tex]x=-23[/tex] and [tex]x=17[/tex]
For the second: [tex]x=5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=17 for the first and x=5 for the second.
Step-by-step explanation:
First picture
Opposite angles of two intersecting lines are equal.
So the angle opposite the 100 degree angle on line c is also 100.
Since a, b, and c are all parallel, the angles made by the intersecting line r, are also all equal (these are corresponding angles).
So 5x + 15 = 100
5x = 85
x = 17
Second picture
Adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees. So the angle opposite 52 is 180-52=128.
[tex]2^{2x-3}=128\\\\2x-3 = 7\\2x = 10\\x=5[/tex]
