One angle in a triangle has a measure that is three times as large as the smallest angle. the measure of the third angle is 20 degrees more than that of the smallest angle. find the measure of the largest angle.

Let s represent the smallest angle. Then the 3 angles are

Since it is a triangle, the sum of these angles is 180°

... s + 3s + (s+20°) = 180°

... 5s = 160° . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 20°

... s = 32° . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

Then the 3 angles are

The largest angle is 96°.

in simplified version   it would be x ≤-4

step-by-step explanation:

multiply each term in x ≤-4 by -1

$12. that is my answer.
