Find x show ur work !!!!

Luda [366]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 67 = 3x - 53 ( exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles )

3x - x = 67 + 53

2x =120

x = 120 /2

x = 60

B.y = 4x + 2<br> y = -8x + 8

Inessa05 [86]

$y = 4x + 2 \\ = > y - 2 = 4x \\ = > x = \frac{y - 2}{4}$

$y = - 8x + 8 \\ = > y = - 8( \frac{y - 2}{4} ) + 8 \\ = > y = \frac{ - 8y + 16}{4} + 8 \\ = > y = \frac{ - 8y + 16 + 32}{4} \\ = > y = \frac{ - 8y + 48}{4} \\ = > 4y = - 8y + 48 \\ = > 4y + 8y = 48 \\ = > 12y = 48 \\ = > y = 4$

$y = 4x + 2 \\ = > 4 = 4x + 2 \\ = > 4x = 4 - 2 \\ = > 4x = 2 \\ = > x = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$

<u>Answer:</u>

$x = \frac{1}{2} \\ y = 4$

Hope you could understand.
