Answer:
It's 24 because you multiply all the number's together you get 24.
Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps you.
A)
The question tells us that
y + z = 180
And
y=3x+20
z=x
So we put them in the first formula:
y + z = 180
(3x + 20) + x = 180
Add and get x to one side:
4x + 20 = 180
4x + 20 - 20 = 180-20
4x = 160
Divide both sides by 4
x = 40
B)
Put x back in to equation to get size of each angle:
Y =3x +20
Y=3(40)+20
Y=120+20
Y=140
Z=x
Z=40
Verify: y+z=180
140+40=180
180=180
<span>s = 22 degrees
Assuming I'm interpreting your description accurately, the top right angle of line b will also be 158 degrees because it's a corresponding angle to the top right angle of line a. That means that the top left angle of line b will be a supplementary angle. And supplementary angles add up to 180. So 180 - 158 = 22.</span>
