Answer:

  Sydney is 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent Sydney's age. Then Devaughn's age is (s-14). The total of their ages is ...

  s +(s -14) = 76

  2s = 90 . . . . . . simplify, add 14

  s = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 2

Sydney's age is 45.

___

<em>Check</em>

  Devaughn's age is 45 -14 = 31. Their age total is 45 +31 = 76, as required.

Answer:

x + (x - 14) = 76

2x - 14 = 76

2x = 90

x = 45

Sydney is 45

45 - 14 = 31

Devaughn is 31

31 + 45 = 76 ✅

Pls help me with this question and explain how you got the answer!!!!!
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

-87

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first to find <em>x</em> you need to subtract 121 from 180. You do this because both the angle which measures 121 degrees and <em>x</em> lie on the same line, and since a line has an angle measure of 180, you do 180-121 to find <em>x</em>. The same thing can be done for <em>y</em>. Since the angle measure of 34 degrees and y lie on the same line you can calculate 180-34 to get <em>y. </em>So, let's do that.

180-121=x

59=x

180-34=y

146=y

Once you've done that you can easily subtract the two and get your answer.

x-y

substitute the answer for the variables and get

59-146

and then your answer is

-87
