Answer:
The two angles are 25.5 and 114.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>x = measure of one angle
</em></u>
<u><em>5x - 13 = measure of the other angle {one angle is 13 less than 5 times the other}
</em></u>
<u><em>
x + 5x - 13 = 140 {sum of the two angles is 140}
</em></u>
<u><em>6x - 13 = 140 {combined like terms}
</em></u>
<u><em>
6x = 153 {added 13 to each side}
</em></u>
<u><em>x = 25.5 {divided each side by 6}
</em></u>
<u><em>5x - 13 = 114.5 {substituted 25.5, in for x, into 5x - 13}</em></u>

Answer:
distance across the pond: 13 yd
distance walked by Garret: 12 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
- distance across the pond: x yd
- distance walked by Sandy: 5 yd
- distance walked by Garret: x-1 yd
A right triangle is formed where the distance across the pond is the hypotenuse. From Pythagorean theorem:
x² = 5² + (x-1)²
x² = 25 + x² - 2x + 1
0 = 26 - 2x
x = 13
