X+ y = 44
x - y = 6
—————
2x = 50
x = 25
y = 44-x = 19
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>:
The only information we have to go on is that ∠AWZ ≅ ∠XYC. However, these are not specific kinds of angles that can prove lines parallel. If we had a pair of alternate interior angles, such as ∠AWZ and ∠WZY, we could say that the lines are parallel. However, we do not have enough information.
x/3>-1
Isolate the x. Multiply 3 to both sides
(x/3)3 > -1(3)
x > -1(3)
x > -3
x > -3 is your answer
hope this helps
