Lewis Sutton · Answer 1

1) 10x+70 = 180

10x = 180-70

10x = 110

x = 11

2) 5x+15+30 = 90

5x = 90-45

x = 45/5

x = 9

Cayden Hawkins · Answer 2

1.

supplementary add to 180

10x+70=180

minus 70 both sides

10x=110

divid both sides by 10

x=11 degrees

B

2.

right angle is 90 degrees

30+5x+15=90

5x+45=90

minus 45 both sides

5x=45

divide 5 both sides

x=9

B

1. B
