Line m is intersected by line n. What is the value of x?
11111nata11111 [884]

The line n intersects line m and at the point of intersection two angles are formed, which are 3x and x.

Please note that angles on a straight line equals 180 degrees. That means angle 3x and angle x both sum up to 180. This can be expressed as;

3x + x = 180

4x = 180

Divide both sides of the equation by 4 (to eliminate the 4 on the left hand side and isolate the x)

x = 45

Simplify : 5y-2y+4=10​
Mnenie [13.5K]
Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

5y - 2y + 4 = 10

5y - 2y = 6

3y = 6

y = 2

Check:

5y - 2y + 4 = 10

5(2) - 2(2) + 4 = 10

10 - 4 + 4 = 10

6 + 4 = 10

10 = 10

The value of y = 2
