Lines AB and CD (if present in the picture) are straight lines. Find x. Give reasons to justify your solutions.

WORDS: The value of x is 15.

EQUATION: x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. AB is a straight line therefore angles AOF, FOG, and GOB total 180º

2. If ∠FOG = 90º, AOF + GOB = 90º by subtraction & substitution property

3. 5x - 15 + 2x = 90 (now solve) --> by substitution

4. 7x - 15 = 90 --> by C.L.T. or Combine Like Terms

5. 7x = 105 --> by C.L.T. or Combine Like Terms

6. x = 15 --> by inverse operations (division)

Hope this helps!

5x+40

5(x + 8)

7x - 49

7(x - 7)

18x + 9

9(2x + 1)

15x - 10

5(3x - 2)

step-by-step explanation:

for number one all you have to do is factor 5 out of 5x + 40

for number 2 factor 7 out of 7x - 49

for number three factor 9 out of 18x + 9

for number four factor 5 out of 15x - 10

i dont understand the question? ?
