What is the value of x + y? I've tried to figure out how to solve this, but I'm not very good at it, any help would be amazing!!
If you didn't know, opposite angles are equal.
So in this case, 85 = 3x + 55, and 95 = 2y - 5
85 = 3x + 55
30 = 3x
10 = x
95 = 2y - 5
100 = 2y
50 = y
This means x + y = 10 + 50, which gives you the answer of 60
Hope this helps :)
