    answer: i'm not going to give you the answer, but some hints to work it out.

    step-by-step explanation: so, if there is a straight line that means that the line angle is 180°. so we subtract the 2 angle measures provided, (15 and 38) from 180. so the answer is 180 - (38 + 15). (you have to solve the equation)

    1/5(x-2)=1/10(x+6)
    Distribute and multiply first
    (1/5*x) -(1/5*2)=(1/10*x) +(1/10*6)
    1/5x-2/5=1/10x+6/10

    We do not have the same denominators on both sides. 5 goes into 10 two times so we will multiply everything on the left by 2 to get a common denominator.
    2/10x-4/10=1/10x+6/10
    Subtract 1/10x from both sides
    1/10x-4/10=6/10
    Add 4/10 to both sides
    1/10x=10/10
    1/10x= 1
    Multiply both sides by 10/1 (the fraction inverse) to get rid of the fraction.

    (10/1)(1/10x) =(1)(10/1)
    x= 10

    Check work:
    1/5(x-2)=1/10(x+6)
    Substitute your answer for x
    1/5(10-2)=1/10(10+6)
    1/5(8)=1/10(16)
    8/5=16/10
    Simplify 16/10 by dividing by 2
    8/5=8/5

    Hope this helps!! 🙂
