Question

Solve to find x and y in the diagram.

Answer choices:
x = 3, y = 15
x = 15, y = 3
x = 15, x = 8
x = 15, y = 6

Answer 1

Option 2
`x` = 15,
`y` = 3

Explanation:

Vertical angles are equivalent. Thus
`4x+10y` = 90. To solve for
`x`, we set
`6x` = 90, since adjacent angles equal 180. This gives us 15 as x. Plugging 15 into the first equation we get that y is equal to 3.

Answer 2

The answer would be b I believe.
