Answer:

son = 3 years

man = 29 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there !

m = man

s = son

m = s + 26

m + 10 = 3(s + 10)

replace m

(s + 26) + 10 = 3s + 30

26 + 10 - 30 = 3s - s

2s = 6

s = 3 years (son)

m = 3 + 26 = 29 years (man)

Good luck !

In an equilateral triangle, each angle is represented by 5y+3. What is the value of y?

mylen [45]

Answer:

y= 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equilateral triangle, each angle is the same

180/3=60

So each angle equals 60

5y+3 =60

Subtract 3 from each side

5y +3-3 = 60-3

5y = 57

Divide by 5

5y/5 = 57/5

y = 11.4
