Mathematics
1 answer:
Marat540 [252]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=3 and y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract equation 2 from 1

then (2x+3y) -(2x+y) =9-7

2x-2x+3y-y =2

2y=2 therefore y=1

substitute y value in 2x+y=7

2x+1=7

2x=7-1

2x=6

x=3

Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees. find two supplementary angles such that the smaller is
kaheart [24]
If the larger angle is x and the smaller angle is y, y=(1/2)x+30 since it's 30 more than 1/2 of it. In addition, x+y=180 since they are supplementary. Plugging y=(1/2)x+30 into that, we get x+x/2+30=180=1.5x+30. Subtracting 30 from both sides, we get 1.5x=150. Next, we can divide both sides by 1.5 to get x=100 and y=(1/2)*100+30=50+30=80
