Answer:  51

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number.

(70%)x = 42

0.7 x = 42

x = 60

we check 15% x 60 = 0.15 x 60 = 9, which is true.

85% of that number = 85% x 60 = 0.85 x 60 = 51.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

100,80

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite angle theorem states that, : "When two lines cross four angles are created and the opposite angles are equal."

y°=80°

Now, check that , x° and y° are in one straight line. A straight line has angle of 180°. So x° and y° should sum up to 180°

x° + y° = 180°

x° + 80° = 180°

x° = 100°
