Answer:

26 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles of triangles will always add up to 180 degrees.

The first angle is 50 degrees.

The second angle, is shown with a 76 degree angle next to it.

Since this is a 180 degree line, we can find the angle of the bottom right corner by doing 180 - 76. 180 - 76 is 104.

104 + 50 = 154 degrees.

The remaining 26 degrees is the answer to the value of y.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\bold{ELIMINATION\ METHOD}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8\\y=x+4&\TEXT{change the signs}\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8\\-y=-x-4\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad0=-2x+4\qquad\text{add}\ 2x\ \text{to both sides}\\.\qquad2x=4\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\.\qquad\boxed{x=2}\\\\\text{Put it to the second equation}\\y=2+4\\\boxed{y=6}$

$\bold{SUBSTITUTION\ METHOD}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8&(1)\\y=x+4&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2)}\\\\-x+8=x+4\qquad\text{subtract 8 from both sides}\\-x=x-4\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\-x-x=-4\\-2x=-4\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\boxed{x=2}\\\\\text{Put it to the second equation}\\y=2+4\\\boxed{y=6}$
