The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is 6x + 6y. Find y in the terms of x

A.

y = 90 - x

B.

y = 150 - x

C.

y = 60 - x

D.

y = 120 -x

Correct Answer: y = 90 - x

Explanation

6x + 6y = (n - 2) 180 6x + 6y= (5 - 2) 180 6(x + y) = 3 * 180 x + y = (3 * 180)/6 x + y = 90o y = 90 - x

6x + 6y = (n - 2) 180 6x + 6y= (5 - 2) 180 6(x + y) = 3 * 180 x + y = (3 * 180)/6 x + y = 90o y = 90 - x
