What is the value of x + y?
You cannot tell without the numerical values of x and y, otherwise it is fine as it is.,.
1. Writing the correct equation(s) 2. Showing steps 3. Solving for x 4. Solving for y 5. Solving for x + y
they are vertical angle right |dw:1413937130032:dw| circle equal to circle and square equal to square
2y-5=95 Add 5. 2y=100 Divide by 2. y=50
3x+55=85 Subtract 55. 3x=30 Divide by 3. x=10
x+y=50+10=60
now set them equal 3x + 55 = 85 and other two also equal then solve for y and x after you find you answer then add x and y values then you should get your answer
Thanks @Nnesha for giving her the introduction.
you can also check your answer by plugging back x and y values into the equation like |dw:1413937375684:dw| so these both side are equal that's mean both side are vertical ( vertical angles are congruent) so that mean x =10 is right answer you can check y too
