Question

Can anyone solve for y? Thanks!

Answer 1

Explanation:

(4y-6) and 14 are vertical angles this they are equal

`4y - 6 = 14`

`4y = 20`

`y = 5`

Likewise, 5x-5 and 3x+17 are equal

`5x - 5 = 3x + 17`

`2x = 22`

`x = 11`

Please note that the degree measure is not 11 itself, that the value of the x variable,

In fact, if you plug in 11 for x.

The value of the variable will be

50 degrees
