Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

x / y = 5 / 3, then 3x = 5y , x = 5/3y

we can type 5/3y instead of x ;

5/3y + y = 8/3y = 56, then y = 21

.

now let's find x ;

x - 21 = 56, then x = 35

x - y = 35 - 21 = 14

What is the value of X?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 angles of a triangle add up to 180

<a + <b + <c = 180

substitute what you know

55+ 80 + <c = 180

combine like terms

135 + <c = 180

subtract 135 from each side

<c = 180 -135

<c = 45

x = 45
