Answer:
x + (x + 55) = 180
2x =125
The angle is 62.5 degrees
Double-Check
62.5 + (62.5 + 55) = 180
125 + 55 = 180
62.5 is the smaller angle
Step-by-step explanation:
Pretty sure the answer is 8
Y = x + 5....so we sub in x + 5 for y in the other equation
4x + y = 20
4x + x + 5 = 20
5x + 5 = 20
5x = 20 - 5
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3
y = x + 5
y = 3 + 5
y = 8
solution is (3,8)
