First, set 2x+7 equal to 3x-7 since they are the same angle due to the parallel lines.
2x+7=3x-7
x=14
Then, since 2x+7 and 12y+1 equals 180, put it together to find y:
(2x+7)+(12y+1)=180
(2(14)+7)+(12y+1)=180
12y+1=145
12y=144
y=12
So, x=14 and y=12. Your answer should be C!
If what you mean is what does x equal then X=30
For each of the following relationships, graph the proportional relationship between the two quantities, write the equation representing the relationship, and describe how the unit rate, or slope is represented on the graph.
If the equation is 4x+1/3=20, your answer would be x=59/12.
- You would subtract 1/3 from each side. (1/3 - 1/3) (20-1/3)
- Then your new equation would be 4x = 59/3
- You would divide 4 from each side (4/4) (59/3 / 4)
- x = 59/12
