Please help me solve this

1st pic:

x = 60

y = 50

2nd pic:

y = 8

∠W = 28

∠Y = 128 degrees

∠X = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

first pic:

to find x, subtract 120 from 180 ⇒ 180 - 120 = 60

to find y, add 60 & 70 & subtract the sum from 180 ⇒ 180 - (60 + 70) = 50

2nd pic:

to find ∠Y, subtract 52 from 180:

180 - 52 = 128

to find y, use the following equation:

3y + 4y - 4 + 128 = 180

combine like terms:

7y + 124 = 180

subtract 124 from each side:

7y + 124 - 124 = 180 - 124

7y = 56

divide 7 on both sides:

y = 8

now we can find angles W and X

∠W = 4y - 4

we know that y = 8 so just substitute 8 for y

∠W = 4 x 8 - 4

∠W = 28

∠X = 3y

likewise, subtitute 8 for y

∠X = 3 x 8

∠W = 24

to check, add all angles and if they add up to 180, then its right:

24 + 28 + 128 = 180

180 = 180

a.   we have two

lines:   y = 4-x   and  

y = 8-x^-1

given two simultaneous equations that are both to be

true, then the solution is the points where the lines cross. the intersection is

where the two equations are equal. therefore the solution that works for both

equations is when

4-x = 8-x^-1

this is where the two lines will cross and that is the

common point that satisfies both equations.

b.   4-x = 8-x^-1

  x           4-x       8-x^-1

-3           7        

8.33

-2           6         8.5

-1           5         9

  0           4        

-

  1           3        

7

  2           2        

7.5

  3           1         7.67

the table shows that none of the x values from -3 to 3 is

the solution because in no case does

4-x = 8-x^-1

to find the solution we need to rearrange the equation to

find for x:

4-x = 8-x^-1

multiply both sides with x:

4x-x^2 = 8x-1

x^2+4x-1=0

x= -4.236, 0.236

therefore there are two points that satisfies the

equation.

find y:  

x=-4.236

y = 4-x   = 4 – (-4.236)

= 8.236

y = 8-x^-1 =   .236)^-1

= 8.236

x=0.236

  y = 4-x   = 4 – (0.236) = 3.764

y = 8-x^-1 =   8-(0.236)^-1

= 3.764

thus the two lines cross at 2 points:

(-4.236, 8.236) & (0.236, 3.764)

c.   to solve

graphically the equation 4-x = 8-x^-1

we would graph both lines: y = 4-x   and   y

= 8-x^-1

the point on the graph where the lines cross is the

solution to the system of equations.

just graph the points on part b on a cartesian coordinate

system and extend the two lines.   the

solution is, as stated, the point where the two lines cross on the graph.
