<h3>x = 60</h3><h3>y = 60</h3>
x° + 2y° = 180° ⇒ 2y° = 180° - x°
x° = 60° {three sides of the same lengh, means three angles=60°}
2y° = 180° - 60°
2y° = 120°
y° = 60°
Team A: 15 points
Team B: 3 points
Team A has twelve more points than Team B:
A = B + 12
Team A has five times as many points as Team B:
A = B × 5
A = 5B
substitute "A" with "B + 12" to solve for B:
A = 5B
(B + 12) = 5B
B + 12 = 5B
12 = 5B - B
12 = 4B
3 = B
Team B has 3 points
now substitute "B" with 3 to solve for A:
A = 5B
A = 5(3)
A = 15
Team A has 15 points
Check your answer by inputting both values into either equation:
A = 5B
(15) = 5(3)
15 = 15 ✔
A = B + 12
(15) = (3) + 12
15 = 15 ✔

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 31 : 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the following:
Alice's amount = P
Bob's amount = Q
Amount received = n
If Alice receives $n$ dollars from Bob ;then she will have $4$ times as much money as Bob.
P + n = 4(Q - n)
P + n = 4Q - 4n
P = 4Q - 4n - n
P = 4Q - 5n - - - - (1)
If, on the other hand, she gives $n$ dollars to Bob, then she will have $3$ times as much money as Bob
P - n = 3(Q + n)
P - n = 3Q + 3n
P = 3Q + 3n + n
P = 3Q + 4n - - - - - - (2)
Equating both equations - (1) and (2)
4Q - 5n = 3Q + 4n
4Q - 3Q = 4n + 5n
Q = 9n
Express P in terms of n, use either equation (1) or (2)
From equation 2:
P = 3Q + 4n
Substituting Q = 9n
P = 3(9n) + 4n
P = 27n + 4n
P = 31n
Alice's amount = P, Bob's = Q
Ratio = P:Q
31 : 9
You put the 15x + 100 on the angle CEB instead of CED. If you put it in the right spot, it should work out fine since they are vertical angles.
