Answer:
m ∠S = 43°
Step-by-step explanation:
Exterior angle = Sum of opposite interior angles
(6x)° = 77° + (2x + 3)°
6x = 77 + 2x + 3
6x - 2x = 77 + 3
4x = 80
x = 20
m ∠S = (2x + 3)° = 2(20) + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43°
To solve this, you can substitute the second equation into the first.
It becomes 2x-(2x+3)=7
Solve from here!
You get -3=7. Not possible. Therefore there is no solution to this system.
System is inconsistent. Hope this helps.
I think it’s a because it says perimeter which means to add up all the sides but I could be wrong. I’m not really sure.
