Please help ASAP Explanation is appreciated!

x=20, y=100

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2x=7x-40

5x=7x-40

2x=40

x=20

7x-40=y

140-40=y

100=y

y=100

According to the exterior angle theorem, the two remote interior angles are equal to the exterior angle. This is why we set 3x+2x equal to 7x-40.

According to the vertical angles theorem, two angles that are opposite and formed by two intersecting straight lines are equal. This is why we set 7x-40 equal to y.

Because we already knew that x was 20, we could put it into our equation. (7*20)-40=y.

Hope this helped! :D

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
