Answer:

x= 1.5

y= 4.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given the two equations

-2x - 8y = -30-------1\\\\2x + 8y = 36--------2

Step two:

let us subtract the equations

-2x - 8y = -30-------1\\\\ -(2x + 8y = 36)--------2\\\\0x-16y=-66

-16y=-66\\\\16y=66

divide both sides by 16

y=66/16\\\\y=4.125

put y= 4.125 in equation 2

2x + 8(4.125)= 36\\\\2x+33=36\\\\2x=36-33\\\\2x=3\\\\x= 3/2\\\\x= 1.5

The figure shows a square, a regular pentagon and a regular hexagon put together. What is the measure of ∠BAC
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

One angle of a regular pentagon = 108°

One angle of a regular hexagon = 120°.

One angle of a square = 90°

∴ ∠BAC = 360 – (108 + 20 + 90) 360 – 318 = 42°
