(7x−22)°=180°
left parenthesis 7 x minus 22 right parenthesis degrees equals 180 degrees

(3x−22)°=90°
left parenthesis 3 x minus 22 right parenthesis degrees equals 90 degrees

(7x−22)°=90°

Answer 1

but wouldnt you add the like terms together?

Answer 2

(3x−22)°=90°

Answer 3

I apologize for the oversight. Yes, you are correct. We should combine the like terms 2x and 5x.

2x + 5x - 22

This simplifies to:

7x - 22

So, the simplified equation corresponding to the measures of the angles is:

(7x - 22)°=90°
