Find x

help please, asap.

X=58 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So We can start by finding the angle thats supplementary to 109.

Well 109 and another unknown angle (which will be Y for this scenario) would form a straight line which is 180 degrees.

109+y=180

Solve that by isolating the y and you would get 71 as the missing side.

Now we have 2 sides, 71 and 51. We’re trying to find x or the angle vertical to the thrid interior angle of the triangle.

Vertical is basically equal so we really just gotta find the third side. A triangle is equal to 180 degrees and if you add em up.

71+51+x=180

Combine like terms

122+x=180

Isolate the X

x=58

So x is 58 degrees.

x = 180 - 51 - 71 = 58°

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
