Write an equation in terms of \(x\) and solve it.
You must show all your working. [3]
| Scheme | Marks | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Sight of \(x + 5 + x - 10 + x - 75\) (+125) | B1 | |
| \(3x - 80 + 125 = 360\) or \(3x - 80 = 360 - 125\) or \(3x = 315\) | B1 | Implies previous B1 FT ‘their \(x + 5 + x - 10 + x - 75\)’ provided it contains at least 2 of the appropriate angle terms, simplified and correctly equated |
| \(x = 105\) | B1 | CAO. An answer ‘\(x = 105\)’ without previous equation is awarded B0 |
