The angles with measures (5x + 4y)º and 74º are congruent because they form a pair of alternate interior angles between the parallel horizontal bars, so
5x + 4y = 74
The other two labeled angles are also congruent because they are corresponding interior angles that occur between the parallel vertical bars, so
20x + 4y = 164
Then
(20x + 4y) - (5x + 4y) = 164 - 74
(20x - 5x) + (4y - 4y) = 90
15x = 90
x = 6
which means
5*6 + 4y = 74
4y = 44
y = 11
Answer:
The answer is :60
Step-by-step explanation:
Hmmmm...... because
Hello
x = 3y - 6
2x - 4y = 8
We need to start by solving 3y - 6 for x
Substitute 3y -6 for x in 2x
2x - 4y = 8
2(3y - 6) - 4y = 8
2y - 12 = 8
2y = 8 + 12
2y = 20
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2 = 20/2
y = 10
Now, substitute 10 for y in x= 3y
x = 3y - 6
x = 3(10) - 6
x = 30 - 6
x= 24
Answer : x = 24 and y=10
I hope this help!
