Answer:
12° and 168°
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the angle, and y is the supplementary angle, then:
x + y = 180
x = y − 156
Solve the system of equations using substitution:
y − 156 + y = 180
2y = 336
y = 168
Plug back into either equation to find x:
x = 12
Easy!
You take the total number of students (55) then you remove the people that only like math and remove the people that only like English and remove the people that like none of them and what’s left is how many like both subjects.
55-15-18-5=17 students that like both subjects!
Multply both equations by 2 leaving
x + 2y = 8
x - 2y = -2
Add the equations giving
2x = 6
x = 3
Substitute 3 in the top equation
3 + 2y = 8
2y = -5
y = -2.5
"if you break down a $1 bill, it is 4 quarters. If you add the 4 quarters to the other 3 then you will get the sum of 7."
Hope this helps!
