Answer:

  • x = 11
  • y = 4

Explanation:

In order to solve this, we need to assume that the angles involving x are supplementary, and the angles involving y are complementary.

(7x -8) +(13x -32) = 180

20x -40 = 180 . . . . . . . . . collect terms

20x = 220 . . . . . . . . . add 40

x = 11 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 20

__

(10y +22) +(7y) = 90

17y = 68 . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 22

y = 4 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 17
