Question

1. Find the value of x.
2. Find the value of y.

Answer 1

The easiest way to do this is below

Since all sides are equivalent to eachother, take:

85/5= 17 … 5(17) = 85 x=17

95/5=19 … 5(19)= 95 y=19

Answer 2

`5y + 85 = 180 \\ 5y = 10 - 85 \\ 95 / 5 = 19 \\ 5x + 95 = 180 \\ 5x = 180 - 95 \\ 5x = 85 \\ x = 17`
