The values of x and y are 45 and 8.
<h3>What is a Linear Pair of Angles?</h3>
When two lines meet at a single point, a pair of linear angles is created. If the angles follow the point where the two lines cross, they are considered to be linear. A linear pair's angles add up to 180° in every case.
Given:
Measures of two linear pairs of angles which are of equal measures are 2x and 11y + 2.
As the sum of linear pair of angles is 180°, and if they are of equal measures, each angle must be equal to 90°.
To determine the values of x and y we equate the given angles to 90°.
2x = 90°
⇒ x = 45
And 11y+2 = 90°
⇒ 11y = 90-2 = 88
⇒ y = 8

Answer:
<u>112 children</u>
<u>180 adults</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of adults = A
Let the number of children = C
A + C =292
4A + 1.5C = 888. solve for A, C
A = 292 - C
4[292 - C] + 1.5C = 888
1,168 - 4C + 1.5C = 888
-2.5C = - 280
C = -280 / -2.5
C = 112 - Number of children
292 - 112 = 180 - Number of adults
