Answer:
x = 65 , y = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
y - 16 and 2y + 4 are same- side interior angles and sum to 180° , that is
y - 16 + 2y + 4 = 180
3y - 12 = 180 ( add 12 to both sides )
3y = 192 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 64
then
2y + 4 = 2(64) + 4 = 128 + 4 = 132
the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.
2y + 4 is an exterior angle of the triangle , then
x + 67 = 132 ( subtract 67 from both sides )
x = 65
Answer:
Look at the equations:
y
=
−
9
x
−
21
and
y
=
5
x
+
7
Because both equations equal (y), they both equal the same.
If an equations says "
y
=
−
9
x
−
21
" , that means we can replace (y) with
−
9
x
−
21
.
Therefore when i take the equation:
y
=
5
x
+
7
, we can replace (y) to get:
−
9
x
−
21
=
5
x
+
7
Now isolate (x):
−
9
x
−
21
=
5
x
+
7
⇔
−
21
=
14
x
+
7
⇔
−
28
=
14
x
⇔
x
=
−
2
18 is the answer im pretty sure if its wrong im sorry
Y+3=1/4x-1/4
0.25x-y=3-0.25
0.25x-y=2.75
