Answers: x = 13 and y = 11
===========================================================
Let's focus on the angle expressions that have x in them.
They are adjacent angles and they form a straight line. So we consider them a linear pair. All linear pair angles always add to 180
(3x+89)+(7x-39) = 180
(3x+7x) + (89-39) = 180
10x+50 = 180
10x = 180-50
10x = 130
x = 130/10
x = 13
We'll use the same idea to find y
(3y+19)+(4y+84) = 180
(3y+4y) + (19+84) = 180
7y+103 = 180
7y = 180-103
7y = 77
y = 77/7
y = 11
------------------------------------------
Extra info (optional section)
Let's find the measures of the four angles based on the x and y values we found.
- 3x+89 = 3*13+89 = 128
- 7x-39 = 7*13-39 = 52
- 3y+19 = 3*11+19 = 52
- 4y+84 = 4*11+84 = 128
It's not a coincidence that the 3x+89 and 4y+84 angles are equal (to 128). These are vertical angles which are always congruent. The other pair of congruent vertical angles are the 3y+19 and 7x-39 angles.
Note how 128+52 = 180 to help further confirm we have the correct values.
Another thing to notice is that all four angles add up to 360 degrees.
Answer:
8 teachers and 52 students attended the Miami Metro Zoo
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=60
11.5x+6.75y=443
11.5(60-y)+6.75y=443
690-11.5y+6.75y=443
-4.75y=-247
y=52
x+(52)=60
x=8
CHECK:
11.5(8)+6.75(52)=443
(8)+(52)=60
The answer for this question is B because - -e/-f is the same as - -e/f
