Answer:

m∠A = 139°

Explanation:

Since knowing that:

Supplementary angles = 180 degree

Thus we put that in both equation:

( 7x - 15 ) + ( 2x - 3 ) = 180

Combine like terms & use inverse operations to find the value of x:

( 7x - 15 ) + ( 2x - 3 ) = 180

9x - 18 = 180

9x - 18 + 18 = 180 + 18

9x = 198

9x/9 = 198/9

x = 22

Hence, Angle A will have a measure of 7x - 15 which means 7 × 22 -15 = 154 - 15 = 139°

m∠A = 139°

The measure of Angle B will be 2x - 3 = 2 • 22 - 3 = 44 - 3 = 41°

m∠ B = 41°

Check Answer by add 139 and 31 which equal 180
