Question

Please help me in solving for x and y

Answer 1

Answer:

x =  27/2

y = 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x:

We know that 7x + 30 and 11x - 24 are vertical angles. Therefore, they are congruent/equal to each other.

7x + 30 = 11x - 24

Isolate the variable & solve for x.

x = 27/2

To solve for y:

We know that 5y + 38 and 17y - 4 are vertical angles. Therefore, they are congruent/equal to each other.

5y + 38 = 17y - 4

Isolate the variable & solve for y.

y = 7/2

Hope this helps!
