Solve the equation. 6 = 2(x + 8) - 5x

The correct answer is 3 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

6 = 2(x+8) - 5x

2x+ 2*8 -5x= 6

(2x -5x)+ 16= 6

-3x = 6 -16

-3x = -10

x= -10/(-3)

x= 10/3

x= 3 1/3

Exact Form:

x = 10/3

Decimal Form:

x = 3.3(repeating)

Mixed Number Form:

x = 3 1/3

the sum of all the angles in a triangle are equal to 180

so you can add   the 3 given angles together to equal 180:

5y + 2y + 2y = 180

or since all three angles have the same letter, combine the 3 angles to equal 180:

9y = 180
