2y+20=100
2y=80
y=40
The explanation for this would because because the two base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal so since the both equal to 40 degrees, in total would be 80 degrees.
Since the total degrees of a triangle is 180 and you know the base angles make up for 80 percent you subtract that from the total of the angle your trying to find, which is 2y+20.

I need the answer did you get it

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding the same number to both sides of the equation is an acceptable move. The addition property of equality tells Grace that the value of the variable will remain unchanged by such a move.
Her new equation would be ...
2x +20 +10 = 15 +10
2x +30 = 25 . . . . the result of Grace's move
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
There may be very good reasons why Grace would want to do that. If solving the equation is Grace's intent, that move would be counterproductive. For the purpose of solving the equation, it would be more productive to either subtract 20 from both sides, or divide both sides by 2. These steps would give, respectively, ...
2x = -5
x +10 = 7.5
The answer is A. Because you can’t lose the amount of steps you took.
