Answer 2

Answer:

x = 8, y = 89/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of parallel lines, some angles are the same, see the attached image. That also means that (12x-28) + (9y-77) = 180 because they are half of an angle. So:

(12x-28) + (9y-77) = 180 ->

12x + 9y = 185.

Then,

(7x+12) = (12x-28) ->

x = 8.

We can plug that into the last equation:

12(8) + 9y = 185 ->

y = 89/9
