Answer:
a. (15, 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
We start with those two equations:
1) a - 1.2b = -3
2) 0.2b + 0.6a = 12
We'll begin by modifying equation #1 to isolate a:
a = -3 + 1.2b
Then we'll use this value for a in the second equation:
0.2b + 0.6 (-3 + 1.2b) = 12
0.2b - 1.8 + 0.72b = 12
0.92b = 13.8
b = 15
Then we'll place that value of b in the first equation to find a:
a - 1.2 (15) = -3
a - 18 = -3
a = 15
Answer:
b = 55 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles 30, a, b and 45 must sum up to 180 degrees
Subtracting (30 + 45) from both sides leaves us with a + b = 105 degrees.
But b = a + 5. Substituting a + 5 in the equation above yields
a + a + 5 = 105 degrees, so that
2a = 100 degrees, and a = 50 degrees. Then b = a + 5, or b = 55 degrees.
