no way dude really? thats so cool
Answer: Choice A) x = 15; y = 17
---------------------
Explanation:
The "7x+7" angle and the "112 degree" angle are congruent. They are vertical angles. So
7x+7 = 112
7x+7-7 = 112-7
7x = 105
7x/7 = 105/7
x = 15
We technically have enough to stop here, but let's keep going to find y
The "4y" angle and the "112 degree" angle are supplementary. They form a single straight line. They add to 180 degrees
So,
4y+112 = 180
4y+112-112 = 180-112
4y = 68
4y/4 = 68/4
y = 17
7pm the next day because 23 hours past 8:00pm would just drop one hour
The correct answer to the question is X+2y=-10
You divide each side of the equation by 4 .
Then you have
<em>x = 15/4</em> or 3.75
