Question

Find the value of each variable.

A) (5y) = 120°, (2x) = 108°
B) (5y) = 108°, (2x) = 120°
C) (5y) = 60°, (2x) = 54°
D) (5y) = 54°, (2x) = 60°

Answer 1

The values of the variables y and x are calculated by dividing the equations by the coefficients. For example, for 5y = 120°, y equals 24° and for 2x = 108°, x equals 54°.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of each variable, we need to solve for y and x in each of the equations provided:

1. For 5y = 120°, we divide both sides by 5 to get y = 120° / 5 = 24°.
2. For 2x = 108°, we divide both sides by 2 to get x = 108° / 2 = 54°.
3. Similarly, for 5y = 108°, y = 108° / 5 = 21.6°, and for 2x = 120°, x = 120° / 2 = 60°.
4. Equally, for 5y = 60°, y = 60° / 5 = 12°, and for 2x = 54°, x = 54° / 2 = 27°.
5. And for 5y = 54°, y = 54° / 5 = 10.8°, and for 2x = 60°, x = 60° / 2 = 30°.
