can you see this image?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

cool, can you tell me what the relationship of the (182 - 4x) and the (5x + 2) angles are?

Answer 6

they are vertical

Answer 7

PERFECT

ok, so vertical angles are going to be EQUAL to each other

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

182 - 4x = 5x + 2

Answer 10

?

Answer 11

this was the part you were confused with last time

and it's going to take a long time to explain why you would do each step

Answer 12

ok so skip the hard part can you tell me the answer and how you go it ?

Answer 13

WAIT...>>>>

Answer 14

so it would be 20 right?

Answer 15

"Anything you do to one side, you do to the other"

I added 4x to both sides
182 = 9x + 2 is the result of doing that step

I subtracted 2 from both sides
180 = 9x is the result of doing that step

and yes, 20 would be correct

Answer 16

ok thank you you are a math wiz/genius

Answer 17

wait is that the answer for x and y???

Answer 18

nonono we just found x

Answer 19

ok thought so i got confused for a second

Answer 20

how do we find y??

Answer 21

if x = 20

what is. 5x + 2 equal to?

Answer 22

102

Answer 23

perfect

then what kind of relationship does the 5x+2 have with the 4y+2 angle?
(use the picture I shared before)

Answer 24

alternate exterior angles

Answer 25

awesome!

Alternate Exterior angles are equal to each other

Answer 26

so 102 = 4y + 2

Answer 27

25?
