So it is an isosceles triangle that means that the bottom two angles are equal...
so
40 = 5x
divide both sides by 5 and you get 8
now the triangle angles add up to 180
we make an equation out of it...
(2y + 20 ) + ( 5(8)) + 40 = 180
2y + 20 + 40 + 40 = 180
combine like terms
2y + 100 = 180
so subtract 100 from both sides
2y = 80
divide by 2 to isolate the variable
y = 40
You are correct!!! :)

Answer:
3a -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2-(-3a+4)
Distribute the minus sign to each term inside the parentheses
2 - -3a -4
2 + 3a -4
Combine like terms
2-4 +3a
-2 +3a
We usually put the variables first
3a -2
