Solve 4x – 3 = 5x + 7.
MEASUREMENT The measure of an angle is 8 degrees more than its complement. If x represents the measure of the angle and 90 – x represents the measure of its complement, what is the measure of the angle?
Words The measure of an angle equals the measure of its complement plus 8.
Variable Let x and 90 – x represent the measure of the angles.
Equation x = 90 – x + 8
x = 90 – x + 8 Write the equation.
x = 98 – x Simplify.
x + x = 98 – x + x Add x to each side.
2x = 98
Answer: The measure of the angle is 49 degrees.
