10x = 15y  +  5  (by the vertical angle theorem).
8x + 1 + 7y + 10x = 180   ( by triangle sum theorem)
18x + 7y = 179 .............(1)
from first equation :-
10x - 15y = 5.................(2)

Multiply  (1) by 10 and (2) by -18:-
180x + 70y = 1790
-180x  + 270y = -90
Adding :-
 340y = 1700
y =  5  
and  from first equation
10x = 15(5) + 5 = 80
x = 8 

Answer x=8, y = 5.

8(3a+5)???? please help!!!!!! ASAP!!!!
r-ruslan [8.4K]

I'm assuming your teacher wants you to distribute. If so, then you multiply the outer term 8 by each term inside (3a and 5). After that you add.

8 times 3a = 24a

8 times 5 = 40

So 8(3a+5) becomes 24a+40

We do not combine 24a and 40 as they are not like terms. So we leave 24a+40 as it is.

7nadin3 [17]
Let h(t)= 0 (because when it reaches the ground h=0)

0=-16t^2+116
16t^2=116
divide both sides by 16
t^2= 7.25
square root both sides to find t
t=2.69sec
