The interior angles of a triangle have measures 100°,  (4y+25)° , and  (3y+20)° . What is the value of y?

Since the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°
So 100°+4y+25°+3y+20=180°
145°+7y=180°
7y=180°-145°
7y=35°
y=5°

the sum of triangle is 180 degrees and therefore here's what I would do, it should be 5 degrees.
