You place a 3 3/8 pound weight on the left side of a balance scale and a 1 1/5 pound weight on the right side of a balance. how much weight do you need to add right side to balance the scale?

pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Weight on the left side = pounds

Weight on the right side = pounds

We need to balance both sides.

Let x be the weight which is added to the right side to balance the scale.

Subtract 6/5 from both sides.

Therefore, pounds weight is added to the right side to balance the scale.

answer: i'm not going to give you the answer, but some hints to work it out.

step-by-step explanation: so, if there is a straight line that means that the line angle is 180°. so we subtract the 2 angle measures provided, (15 and 38) from 180. so the answer is 180 - (38 + 15). (you have to solve the equation)
