Set them equal to each other because they are parallel
3x+7=5x-17
Subtract 3x from both sides
7=2x-17
Add 17 on both sides
24=2x
Divide by 2 on both sides
12=x
First, you have to imagine that you cut the upper triangle. If you do that, then this is how the inner angles are added to 180°:
180° = 90° + (x/2) + (7x - 90°)
180° = x/2 + 7x
180° = x *(1/2 + 7)
180° = x*(15/2)
2/15 * 180° = x
24 = x
Angle A:
A= x/2
A = 24/2
A = 12°
Angle B:
B = 7x
B = 7*24
B = 168°
The two bottom angles are both worth 90°.
Y=2/3x+4
I’m pretty sure this is right but tell me if not
