If Angle B is 4X Angle A, Angle C is 6 less than 5X Angle A,

[joannamartinez]

I need help please. I need to find Angles A,B, and C. If Angle B is 4 times Angle A and Angle C is 6 degrees less than 5 times Angle A. What I came up with is A=x, B= 3x, and C= 6x-5. I am having a hard time solving it. Please advise. Thank you.

If Angle B is 4 times Angle A and Angle C is 6 degrees less than 5 times Angle A.

B = 4x (why are you using 3x?)
C = 5x - 6 (why are you using 6x - 5?)

A + B + C = 180 ; did you know that?
