Answer:

120 - 4.5t= 75

t = 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation :

120 - 4.5t= 75

the solution:

-4.5 t = 75-120

-4.5t = -45

t = -45/(-4.5) = 10 minutes

Find the values of x any y.
Ede4ka [16]

There are so many types of angles, let's see what we've got here!

--(5x - 17) and 48 are alternate interior angles, which means that they are congruent.

--(5x - 17) and y are supplementary angles.

--48 and y are same-side interior angles, which means that they are also supplementary.

Let's solve for x first.

5x - 17 = 48

5x = 65

x = 13

Now, let's solve for y.

48 + y = 180

y = 132

Hope this helps!! :)
