Two supplementary angles have the following angle measures: m<TUV = (2x - 25) degree and m<VUW = 110 degree. What is an equation to solve for x? The equation should be in simplest terms.

Question

2x degree + ____ degree = ____ degree

Answer 1

Since the angles are supplementary, the sum of their measures should be equal to 180 degrees.

We have:
(2x - 25) + 110 = 180

Simplifying the equation, we get:
2x - 25 + 110 = 180
2x + 85 = 180
