Answer:
x = 20
y = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
40 and 2x are vertical angles, so they're equal to each other.
40 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
x = 20
We see that 40 and 5y + 10 are a linear pair, which means they add up to 180.
5y + 10 + 40 = 180
5y + 50 = 180
5y = 130
y = 26

Answer:
Reason given in step 2. is incorrect. It should read; "Distributive Property."
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason given to go from :
2 (3x +4) = 56 to 6x + 8 = 56
is NOT "Multiplication Property of Equality" because one is not multiplying both sides of the equality by a number. The property that is being used is the Distributive Property on the left side of the equation in order to remove the grouping symbols (parenthesis) performing the implied multiplication of the external factor times each term of the binomial in parenthesis.
Answer:
40 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles have a sum of 90.
y = 90 - x
The angle is 260 degrees less than six times its complement.
y = 6x - 260
90 - x = 6x - 260
350 - x = 6x
350 = 7x
50 = x
This is the measure of the complement.
y = 90 - x
y = 90 - 50
y = 40
This is the measure of the first angle.
