Question

help me? ill medal and fan if i havent fanned you already.

Answer 1

Okayyyy this is quite simple if you know your stuff. Let me explain.

Answer 2

\[26y =45x\]

Answer 3

45x-5* sorry

Answer 4

45x-5+16x+2=180
61x-3=180

Answer 5

61x=183
x=3

Answer 6

45x-5=26y
45(3)-5=26y
135-5=26y
130=26y
y=5

Answer 7

So x=3 and y=5

Answer 8

However! We also know that \[(45x-5)+(16x+2)=180\]
This is because they are supplementary angles and supplementary angles are equal to 180 when added together. Follow?

yes. sorry i had to switch the loads of laundry.

Answer 14

no prob

Answer 15

the answer is x=3,y=5 i.e first solve for 45x-5+16x+2=180
and then solve for 16x+2+26y=180 thereby substituting x=3 which you got from the first equation for x which will gve y=5
