What would I get by solving by polynomials?

x=0 or x=3 or x= -3⅘

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached picture for full solution.

Another way to solve it is to factorise x out from the equation from the beginning. This would leave you with

x(5x² +4x -57x)=0

Then you can factorise the quadratic equation.

x(x -3)(5x +19)= 0

And solve it just like we did above.

x=0 or x-3=0 or 5x+19=0

x=3 or 5x= -19

x= -3⅘

In the picture, I used synthetic division but long division works too!

x = 10.1

step-by-step explanation:

all of the angles of a tirangle add up to 180º

180 - 65 = 115 (since we already know the value of one angle)

(2x + 7) + (8x + 7) = 115

(combins like terms) 10x + 14 = 115

(isolate the variable subtract 14 from both sides): 10x = 101

(find the variable divide both sides by 10): x = 101/10

x = 10.1
