Question

Given m ||n, find the value of x and y.

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is x=18 and y=59

Explanation:

Opposite angles are congruent:

(6x+13) = (7x-5)

Solve for x:

6x+13−7x=7x−5−7x

−x+13−13=−5−13

−x=−18

x=18

Plug x value in for y:

Y=180-(7x-5)

Y=180-(126-5)

Y=180-121

Y=59
