<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
<em><u>y = 5, 3; x = 171, 155</u></em>
<em><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></em>
8y - 15 = y^2
y^2-8y+15=0
y^2-3y-5y+15=0
y(y-3)-5(y-3)=0
(y-5)(y-3)=0
y can be 5 or 3.
x = 180 - (8y - 15)
x = 180 - (8(3)-15)
x = 180 - 9
x = 171
OR
x = 180 - (8(5) - 15)
x = 180 - 25
x = 155
The answer is (B). I hope this helps!
