\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}

Let's find the value of given expression for x = 5 ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:3(3x + 5)

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:9x + 15

now, plug in the value of x as 5

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:9(5) + 15

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:45 + 15

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:60

so, the equivalent value is 60

What is the value for y?<br><br><br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
s344n2d4d5 [400]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

y = 28

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The base angles of the isosceles triangle are congruent, so the sum of angles is ...

34° + 34° + 4y° = 180°

... 4y = 180 -68 . . . . . divide by °, subtract 68

... y = 112/4 = 28 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

The value for y is 28.

_____

You have not asked about x in either figure.

<em>First figure</em>

Since the angles are congruent, the sides are congruent. Then ...

... 6x -3 = 5x

... x = 3 . . . . . . add 3-5x

<em>Second figure</em>

The base angles of the isosceles triangle are congruent, so

... 34° = (x -5)°

... 34+5 = x = 39 . . . . . . . divide by °, add 5.
