20 is the area
And 18 is the perimeter
Answer:
b = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the exponent rule that
In this case, 
Set that equal to
:

Apply the exponent rule that
so now you get:

Since the base is y for both sides of the equation, just set the exponents equal to each other and solve for b.
4b = -24
divide each side by 4 to get:
b = -6
Answer:
72 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the angle is x degrees its complement is 90-x degrees and it's supplement is 180-x degrees.
4(90-x) = 2/3(180 - x)
360 - 4x = 120 - 2/3 x
360 - 120 = -2/3 x + 4x
240 = -2/3 + 12/3 x
240 = 10/3 x
x = 240 * 3/10
x = 72 degrees.
Its parallel so they are equal
7x-40=5x+10
2x=50
x=25
