Find the value of x by filling in the blanks in the provided statement- reason solution

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<MNQ = 132°

m<Q = 54°

m<P = 3x

1. m<MNQ = m<P + m<Q

Reason: exterior angle theorem of a triangle

Plug in the values

2. 132° = 3x + 54°

Reason: Substitution

3. x = 26

Reason: Algebra

132 - 54 = 3x (substraction property of equality)

78 = 3x

78/3 = x (division property of equality)

26 = x

x = 26

c

step-by-step explanation:

there is vertical asymptote at x = 2 and x = 0

vertical asymptote occurs at the points where the denominator is 0. so we can say that

x = 2 occurs when there is a factor (x-2) in the denominator, and

x = 0 occurs when there is a factor "x" in the denominator

thus, the denominator of the equation would have "x * (x-2)", this is option c only. that's the correct answer.
