If you have a problem like:
4x+2y=20
2x+2y=16
You would subtract
4x-2y=20
-2x+2y=16
You would get the new problum
2x=4
You now want to divide the 2 on both sides to solve for x
x=2
Now that you've solved for X you want to solve for y. So use substitution to solve for y. You would want to substatute the x for the 2 in either of the problums. I'll use the first one.
4(2)+2y=20
You first want to multiply te 4(2) you would get a new problum.
8+2y=20
Now you want to subtract the 8 on both sides.
2y=12
The last step to solve for y is to divide the 2 on both sides.
Y=6
So your answers would be
x=2
y=6
Answer:
x = 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle on a straight line = 180°
(x + 40)° + (x - 20)° = 180°
x + 40° + x - 20° = 180°
2x + 20° = 180°
2x = 180° - 20°
2x = 160°
x = 160°/2
x = 80°
Check:
(x + 40)° + (x - 20)° = 180°
(80° + 40°) + (80° - 20°) = 180°
120° + 60° = 180°
180° = 180°

You're welcome :)
A) I believe but you might not want to go with it cause I'm not good at math AT ALL:)
