Question

Can U pls help me on this question​

Answer 1

25

Explanation:

they are alternative exterior angles meaning they are equal.so you can solve by doing

7x-40=5x+10

isolate the terms by adding like terms. ( add 40 from the left side of the equation to the right.)

so it would look like this.

7x=5x+10+40. (the 40 was negative on the left side so you have to do the inverse to move it) do the same with the 5x.

now you have

2x=50. divide 50 by 2 to get your final answer .

Answer 2

its parallel so they are equal
7x-40=5x+10
2x=50
x=25
