Answer:

a = 15

b = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to solve by elimination

let us start by rewriting the first equation

We can do this by multiplying through by 10

We have this as;

2a -5b = 100

Now let us eliminate

Multiply equation ii by 2 and equation i by 1

2a -5b = 100

2a-2b = 58

Subtract equation ii from i

-3b = 42

b = 42/-3 = -14

Secondly;

Multiply equation ii by 5 and i by 1

2a - 5b = 100

5a -5b = 145

Subtract ii from i

-3a = -45

a = 45/3

a = 15

Find the measure of unknown angle​
inna [77]

Answer:

a = 85° , b = 30° , c = 65°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ a and 85° are alternate angles and are congruent , so

a = 85°

∠ c and 65° are alternate angles and are congruent , so

c = 65°

a, b and c lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , that is

a + b + c = 180°

85° + b + 65° = 180°

150° + b = 180° ( subtract 150° from both sides )

b = 30°
