Answer:x=14

Explanation:

Let's first understand what we need to do. We need to solve for two variables, x and y. We do these by setting two systems of equations equal to each other. This is easily done for x, but for y the other equation is missing. Keep this in mind for later.

So, we will first start off by solving for x. We do this by using inverse operations.

5x+25=3x+53 We will subtract

5x=3x+28

2x=28 Divide

x=14

You can plug 14 into both the xs and they will be similar, and both will have the similar results once you solve for y and plug it into the equation along with x.

We know that the 5x+25 on the left is adjacent to 2y+35, and so is the second x. Adjacent angles add up to 180 total, and so to solve for y we need to plug 12 in the first x.

5(14)+25=95

180-95=85

85 is the value of 2y+35

We will solve for y just like any other alegrbaic problem

85=2y+35

50=2y

y=25

We know know that y is 25 and x is 14

Plug both values into 2 adjacent angles and they will add up to 180.

Answer:

x=14

y=30

Explanation:

5x+25=3x+53

5x=3x+28

2x=28

x=14

2y+35=95

2y=60

y=30

(I assumed all of the angles are equal, correct me if I'm wrong.)
