Answer 1

Answer:

∠ x = 41°, ∠ y = 139°

Step-by-step explanation:

x and y are adjacent angles and are supplementary , thus

x + y = 180

y = 3x + 16 ( 16 more than 3 times x ) , so

x + 3x + 16 = 180

4x + 16 = 180 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

4x = 164 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 41

and y = 180 - 41 = 139
