Question

Find x and y. Please help this is on a test!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 12 degrees

x = 40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle BDE: 3y + 54 + 90 = 180

3y + 144 = 180

3y = 36

y = 12

Line AC: angles on a straight line = 180

116 + 54 = 170

so, angle EBC = 10

Triangle BCE: 10 + 90 + 2x = 180

100 + 2x = 180

2x = 80

x = 40

Answer 2

To find the x-intercepts algebraically, we let y = 0 y=0 y=0 in the equation and then solve for values of x. In the same manner, to find for y-intercepts algebraically, we let x = 0 x=0 x=0 in the equation and then solve for y.
