Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ ABY and ∠ CBY are adjacent angles on a straight line and sum to 180° , so

x + 25 + 2x + 50 = 180

3x + 75 = 180 ( subtract 75 from both sides )

3x = 105 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 35

Then

∠ CBY = 2x + 50 = 2(35) + 50 = 70 + 50 = 120°

∠ FEB = 5x - 55 = 5(35) - 55 = 175 - 55 = 120°

Then ∠ CBY = ∠ FEB

This means they are corresponding angles and so AC is parallel to DF

Answer:

2x+50 and 5x-55 both are congruent or have same measure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want to prove that both lines are parallel, this means no theorems that involve with parallel lines apply here.

First of, we know that AC is a straight line and has a measure as 180° via straight angle.

x+25 and 2x+50 are supplementary which means they both add up to 180°.

Sum of two measures form a straight line which has 180°.

Therefore:-

x+25+2x+50=180

Combine like terms:-

3x+75=180

Subtract 75 both sides:-

3x+75-75=180-75

3x=105

Divide both sides by 3.

x=35°

Thus, x = 35°

Then we substitute x = 35 in every angles/measures.

x+25 = 35°+25° = 60°

2x+50 = 2(35°)+50° = 70°+50° = 120°

5x-55 = 5(35°)-55 = 175°-55° = 120°

Since 2x+50 and 5x-55 have same measure or are congruent, this proves that both lines are parallel.

Estefani‘s house is at point E (3,-2) and Jasmin’s house is at point J (-5,3). Jasmin’s house is the Mid-point of Estefani’s hou

The formula for midpoint is

( $\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}$ , $\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}$ )

Look at the image below to see the line segment of Estefani's (A), Jasmin's (M), and Preston's (B) houses. Keep in mind that the segment shown below is not accurate in regards to how the line segment formed by Estefani's, Jasmin's, and Preston's houses. It is simply there so you can picture the segment better.

In this case:

$x_{1} =3\\x_{2} =unknown\\y_{1} =-2\\y_{2} =unknown$

^^^Plug in these number into the formula given above...

( $\frac{3+x}{2}$ , $\frac{-2 + y}{2}$ )

To find what x is (a coordinate of Preston's house) you must take the x-value part of the midpoint equation ( $\frac{3+x}{2}$ ) and set it equal to the x-value of the midpoint (-5). Then you must solve for x:

$\frac{3+x}{2}$ = -5

3 + x = -5 * 2

3 + x = -10

x = -10 - 3

x = -13

To find what y is (a coordinate of Preston's house) you must take the y-value part of the midpoint equation( $\frac{-2 + y}{2}$ ) and set it equal to the y-value of the midpoint (3). Then you must solve for y:

$\frac{-2 + y}{2}$ = 3

-2 + y = 3 * 2

-2 + y = 6

y = 6 + 2

y = 8

The coordinate of Preston's house is:

(-13, 8)
