Solve the equation for the value of x

-5x=35

Please show your work, thank you.

-5x=35            divide both sides by 5

-x=7                multiply both sides by -1

x=-7

he can buy 4lbs. of live bait and 1lbs of natural bait

step-by-step explanation:

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.
