I NEED HELP ASP AHH

Answer 1

#5:

Let's first start by solving for x. The two angles with x's in them form a linear pair, or are supplementary angles, meaning that they add up to 180 degrees.

(4x + 23) + (9x - 38) = 180

13x - 15 = 180

13x = 195

x = 15

Now that we have x, we can solve for y. Alternate interior angles are congruent.

(4x + 23) = (21y - 1)

4(15) + 23 = 21y - 1

60 + 23 = 21y - 1

83 = 21y - 1

84 = 21y

y = 4

#8:

Let's first start by solving for x. The two angles with x's in them are corresponding angles, meaning that they are congruent.

10x = 13x - 33

-3x = -33

x = 11

Now that we have x, let's figure out how we can find y. Looking at the angle with a value of 10x, we can find its supplement. That supplement then, is a corresponding angle with the 5y angle, meaning that they are congruent.

Supplement = 180 - 10x

Supplement = 180 - 10(11)

Supplement = 180 - 110

Supplement = 70

Supplement = 5y

70 = 5y

y = 14

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

- #5 -

y = 4

[] First we need to solve for x, these are on a straight line so we can set them equal to 180 degrees and solve because they are supplement angles:

4x + 23 + 9x - 38 = 180

13x - 15 = 180

13x = 195

x = 15

[] Now we will plug-in and solve for one of them

9x - 38

9(15) - 38

135 - 38 = 97

[] Last, the y angle and the angle we just solved for can be added together and set equal to 180 because they are supplement angles:

97 + 21y - 1 = 180

96 + 21y = 180

21y = 84

y = 4

- #8 -

y  = 14

[] First we need to solve for x, these are corresponding angles so we can set them equal to each other:

13x - 33 = 10x

-33 = -3x

11 = x

[] Plug-in and solve for one of them

10x  = 10(11) = 110

[] Last, the line is 180 degrees so we can add them together, set it equal to 180, and solve

110 + 5y = 180

5y = 70

14

Have a nice day!
