To find the equation to solve for x, we need to add the measures of the angles and set it equal to 180 degrees.
m(abc) + m(cbd) + m(dbe) = 180
So, we can write the equation as:
(x-6) + (4x-14) + 5x = 180
Simplifying the equation, we have:
10x - 20 = 180
Adding 20 to both sides of the equation:
10x = 200
Finally, dividing both sides of the equation by 10, we find:
x = 20
Three angles have measures that add to 180 degree they have the following angle measures m abc=(x-6) degree m cbd=(4x-14) degree and m dbe =5x what is the equation to solve for x
