the sum of three angles of a triangle adds up to 180 degrees. In this problem, you are given two angles.
x+(2x+15)+the measure of angle Q should equal 180.
Since everything is addition, the parenthesis can be removed.
x+2x+15+Q=180. This can then be simplified to 2x+15+Q=180. Subtract 15 from both sides to get 2x+Q=165. Divide both sides by two to get the x by itself. x+Q=82.5.
Unfortunately I don't really know what to do from here, but I hope it helped at least a little.
Well to solve these type of question it is very easy to make a tree diagram and then solve them. How ever i have done it here for you.
So basically we have to get a pen from the first box so its probability is 7 / 10.
Similarly, we have to get a crayon from the second box so its probability is 2 / 8.
Now by counting principle we can multiply the two probabilities so 7/10 * 1/4 which becomes equal to 7/40.
