Answer:

a. The value of x is [tex]38^{o}[/tex].

b. The value of y is [tex]25^{o}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Applying the vertically opposite principle,

(2x + 5) = (3x - 33)

2x + 5 = 3x - 33

33 + 5 = 3x - 2x

38 = x

⇒ x = [tex]38^{o}[/tex]

b. Sum of angles on a straight line = [tex]180^{o}[/tex]

So that,

(4y - 1) + (3x - 33) = [tex]180^{o}[/tex]

But,

( 3x - 33) = (3x38 - 33)

               = 114 - 33

               = [tex]81^{o}[/tex]

(4y - 1) + [tex]81^{o}[/tex] = [tex]180^{o}[/tex]

4y - 1 = [tex]180^{o}[/tex] - [tex]81^{o}[/tex]

         = [tex]99^{o}[/tex]

4y = [tex]99^{o}[/tex] + 1

    = [tex]100^{o}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{100}{4}[/tex]

  = [tex]25^{o}[/tex]

y = [tex]25^{o}[/tex]

The value of x is [tex]38^{o}[/tex], and y is [tex]25^{o}[/tex].
