Find the measure of angle ckj if the measure of angle lkc is x + 96, the measure of angle lkj is 131 degrees, and the measure of angle ckj is x+53

The correct answer is 44 degrees !!! p.s don't worry i got a 100 on the test

Step-by-step explanation:

here is how you do it ! It took me some time but i got it. set it up

(x+96) + (x+53) = 131

combine like terms ! 2x+149=131

subtract from both sides ! don't worry if you get a negative you should!

149-149=0

149-131=-18

set up problem again! 2x=-18  divide 2/-18 = -9

Plug in Remember they only asked for siide CKJ SOOO -9+53= 44!!

To check plug in to the other one (x+96 and see what you get) -9+96= 87

add 87 +44 = 131 There you go I hoped i helped :)

this is not the answer this is just a question. is this middle school math?
