Solve for x using the
distributive property.
-5(x - 2) = -20

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x - 2) = -20

first multiple 5 by x and -2

-5x 10 = -20

subtract 10 from 10 and -20

-5x=-30

then divide 5

x=6

answer: (c) m∠qpo + (2x + 16)° = 180°

step-by-step explanation:

the opposite angles of a quadrilateral are supplementary.

so, ∠o + ∠q = 180°   and   ∠p + ∠r = 180°

since ∠r = 2x + 16°, we can use substitution as follows:

∠p + ∠r = 180°

∠p + (2x + 16)° = 180°
