Question
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows three rays from a common vertex with labeled angles. The first ray is inclined to the horizontal left of the common vertex with an arrow at the end. The second ray is inclined to the horizontal right of the common vertex with an arrow at the end. The third ray is to the top right of the common vertex with an arrow at the end. It is between the other two rays. The angle between the first and the third rays is labeled as left parenthesis 2 x plus 3 right parenthesis degrees. The angle between the second and third rays is labeled as left parenthesis x minus 6 right parenthesis degrees.
What is an equation for these two adjacent angles?
(2 points)
(x+)° + (x−)° = °
The equation for the two adjacent angles is given as:
(2x + 3)° + (x - 6)° = °
i also need the answer
To find the answer, we need to simplify the equation. We can combine like terms:
2x + 3 + x - 6 = °
Combining like terms:
3x - 3 = °
Therefore, the equation for the two adjacent angles is:
3x - 3 = °
