So it is an isosceles triangle that means that the bottom two angles are equal...
so
40 = 5x
divide both sides by 5 and you get 8

now the triangle angles add up to 180
we make an equation out of it...
(2y + 20 ) + ( 5(8)) + 40 = 180
2y + 20 + 40 + 40 = 180
combine like terms
2y + 100 = 180
so subtract 100 from both sides
2y = 80
divide by 2 to isolate the variable
y = 40

You are correct!!! :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the parent function is function $y=f(x)$ and $a>0,$ then

the graph of the function $y=f(x-a)$ is translated a units to the right graph of the parent function;
the graph of the function $y=f(x+a)$ is translated a units to the left graph of the parent function;
the graph of the function $y=f(x)+a$ is translated a units up graph of the parent function;
the graph of the function $y=f(x)-a$ is translated a units down graph of the parent function.
