Question

find the values of x and y (2y+5) + (5x-17) +( 3x-11)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!!

You can simply work with it.

(5x - 17)° + (3x - 11)° = 180° { Being a linear pair}.

or, 8x - 28°= 180°

8x = 180° + 28°

$x = \frac{208}{8}$

Therefore, the value of x is 26°.

Now,

3x - 11°= 3×26°-11° = 67°

Again,

67°+90°+(2y+5)° = 180° { being linear pair}.

157°+2y+5° = 180°

or, 2y + 162° = 180°

or, 2y = 180° - 162°

$y = \frac{18}{2}$

Therefore, the value of y is 9°.

The value of x is 26° and y is 9°.

Hope it helps....
