For this you need to know your angles in parallel lines.
3y will equal 87 as they are opposite angles and opposite angles are equal.
So y = 87/3
We can use the knowledge that angles in a straight line (in parallel line diagrams) will add up to 180. Therefore we do 180-87= 93. Now we know 3x=93 because just like the first example they are opposite angles. Now we know x=93/3.
(I didn’t have a calculator on me so you’ll have to work out the final result. Also I recommend looking into angles in parallel lines. I tried my best to explain so I hope you understand the jist of what I was trying to say.)
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer to question 5 is x = 23. The answer to question 6 is x = 17.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two Key Points:
- Angles on a straight line always add up to 180°
- The angles in the inside of a triangle add up to 180°
I have attached a picture showing how to do the two problems. I hope this helps!
Answer:
N+F=42 & F+3N=70 System Solved: Natalie is 14 and Fred is 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Using variables N=natalies age and F=Freds age
N+F=42 ----> N=42-F (take this and plug it into the other equation)
F+3N=70 so F+3(42-F)=70 [simplify] F+126-3F=70 [further simplify]
-2F=-56 [divide -56 by -2] F=28 [then plug this number into the orig. equation]
So N+28=42 or N=14.
