Answer:
x = 47
y = 27
Explanation:
We can solve for the other angles, and figure out the angle next to 126 is 54. The angle next to 85 is 95. We can then solve the blank angle at the top, and see that the blank angle is 31. (2x+1) is going to be equivalent to 95, because of the equal angles. So, 2y and 31 will be equal to 85.
We can start with 2y. If 2y and 31 is 85, we need to subtract 31 from 85 to isolate 2y.
85 - 31 = 2y
85 - 31 = 54
2y = 54
Now, we can divide by 2 on both sides of the equation to solve for y.
54 / 2 = y
54 / 2 = 27
y = 27
Next, we have to solve x. We can start with another equation to solve.
95 = (2x + 1)
We can subtract 1 from both sides.
94 = 2x
Now, we divide by 2, to solve for x.
94 / 2 = x
94 / 2 = 47
x = 47
