Determine the value of f(2) if f(x) = 3x-1

1. Replace x with 2                  3(2)-1
2. Multiply the 3 and the 2      3(2) = 6
3. Subtract 1 from the 6          6-1 = 5

it's difficult because you are looking too hard. think simply. why does it tell you that angle is 40°?

Because if you follow the arrow back to where it starts you will see that exact same angle.

so now you know 1 (not m° or n°) angle inside the triangle is 40° and a complete triangle is 180°.

you also know a straight line has 180° on each side. and the line going from m° to n° splits that in half. meaning there is 90° to the right of it and 90° to the left of it. which means n° must equal 90°.

now you know you have 1 angle inside the triangle with 40° and n°=90° now you just need to find how much m° is.

add 40°+90° then Subtract from 180° to get m°.

180°-130°=50°
m°=50°
