The sum of the measures of angle Y and angle Z is 180 degrees. Angle Y measures (3x + 20) degrees and Angle Z measures x degrees
.
A.) write an equation and solve for the value of x.
B.) what is the measure of each angle?
1 answer:
A)
The question tells us that
y + z = 180
And
y=3x+20
z=x
So we put them in the first formula:
y + z = 180
(3x + 20) + x = 180
Add and get x to one side:
4x + 20 = 180
4x + 20 - 20 = 180-20
4x = 160
Divide both sides by 4
x = 40
B)
Put x back in to equation to get size of each angle:
Y =3x +20
Y=3(40)+20
Y=120+20
Y=140
Z=x
Z=40
Verify: y+z=180
140+40=180
180=180

Answer: 3/2a3
I can't properly write the answer sorry but it's the last one.
4 1/3 = 13/3 = 1/3 x 13/1 = 4 1/3
4x = 14y
y = 4/14(x)
y = 2/7(x) slope = 2/7
<span>-2x+7y=14
7y = 2x + 14
y = 2/7(x) + 2 slope = 2/7
parallel lines, slope is the same
both lines have slopes equal 2/7
