1 answer:

4 0

X*y=72
x = 5y-2

x=72/y
72/y=5y-2

72=5y^2-2y
5y^2 -2y - 72 = 0
(5y+18)(y-4)=0
y = -18/5 discard
or y = 4
4x=72
x=18

(18,4)

Find the value of x

AveGali [126]

Answer:

x = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are supplementary, they add up to 180 degrees.

So, you can say x + x/2 = 180

Then, you would solve it like an algebra problem.

Multiply both sides by 2

2x + x = 360

Simplify

3x = 360

Divide both sides by 3

x = 120
