In the magic square shown, the sums of the numbers in each row, column and diagonal are the same. what are the values of x, y, z, v,

, , , , ;; to find the answer, set the expressions equal to each other, since the sum of the numbers should be the same.

Use  and solve for , which would result in .

You can also use  to find – or .

Plug in the values for  and , and find  using  or  and results in .

After plugging in the  value, you can easily find  and .

– since 66 is the sum of a full row, and the sums of the numbers in each row, column, and diagonal are the same, so therefore,  should also equal 66. This results in , and, using the same value for the sum of , or , we find that .

The final answer is , , , , .

Sorry it took so long;; I hope this helps :)
