Question

Find the value of x and y. Select all that apply. Please show your work :) image is attached

Answer 1

x = 29

y = 110°

Explanation:

y° = (3x + 23)° => corresponding angles are congruent)

(2x + 12)° + y° = 180° => linear pair

Thus:

(2x + 12)° + (3x + 23)° = 180° => substitution

2x + 12 + 3x + 23 = 180

Add like terms

5x + 35 = 180

5x = 180 - 35

5x = 145

x = 145/5

x = 29

✔️y = (3x + 23)°

Plug in the value of x

y = 3(29) + 23

y = 110°
