Do both as equation it will make it easier for her
The answer is (2,4), my work :
<span>Decimals that have the same value are equivalent decimals. Equivalent decimals are decimal numbers that have the same value (the same amount). In other words equivalent decimal numbers have the same value but different number of decimals. For example:
0.5 and 0.50 are equivalent decimals.
0.5 and 0.500
0.05 and 0.0500

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
x = 25
y = 14
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The described scenario can be represented using the attached triangle.
<u>1- getting the value of x:</u>
We know that ΔABC is an isosceles triangle with AC = BC
<u>This means that:</u>
∠CAB = ∠CBA
We know that ∠CAB = 50° and ∠CBA = 2x°
<u>Equating the two angles, we get:</u>
50 = 2x .................> Divide both sides by 2
x = 25
<u>2- getting the value of y:</u>
We know that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180°
<u>This means that:</u>
∠ABC + ∠CAB + ∠ACB = 180°
<u>We have:</u>
∠ABC = 2x = 50°
∠ACB = 5y + 10
∠CAB = 50°
<u>Now, we substitute to get the value of y as follows:</u>
50 + 50 + 5y + 10 = 180
110 + 5y = 180
5y = 180 - 110
5y = 70 .............> Divide both sides by 5
y = 14
Hope this helps :)
