  ∠PRS = 142°

Step-by-step explanation:

One can use the relationship between the exterior angle of a triangle and the remote interior angles. This lets you find x. Then evaluating the expression for angle PRS will give you the measure of the angle.

__

  (3x -8)° = 90° +(x +2)° . . . . exterior = sum of remote interior

  2x = 100 . . . . . . . . add 8-x

  x = 50 . . . . . . divide by 2

Then angle PRS is ...

  ∠PRS = (3x -8)° = (3·50 -8)°

  ∠PRS = 142°

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

−3

x=17

answer:

x=17
