Question

terron jackson
m∠d = 5x and m∠e = 3
5x + 3
8x + 3 = 180
(dividing by 8?)
8x + 11 + 3 = 1.75
x = 1.75
m∠

Explanation:

Step1: Correct the equation (assuming a typo, maybe \(8x + 3 = 180\) was intended to be solved)

To solve \(8x + 3 = 180\), first subtract 3 from both sides:
\(8x + 3 - 3 = 180 - 3\)
\(8x = 177\)

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

Divide both sides by 8:
\(x=\frac{177}{8}=22.125\)

(Note: The original work has inconsistent steps, likely due to typos. The above is a correction for a standard linear equation solution.)

Answer:

If solving \(8x + 3 = 180\), \(x = 22.125\)
