Two lines intersect to form a linear pair with equal measures. One angle has the measure 6x° and the other angle has the measure (9y − 63)°. Find the values of x and y.

A:
Answer:The answer to your question is: x = 15 and y = 17Step-by-step explanation:∠A = 6x∠B = 9y - 63they are linear pair, their addition gives 180°but it also mention that linear pair with equal measure, so each angle measures 90° 6x = 90 x = 90/6 x = 15 9y - 63 = 90 9y = 90 + 63 9y = 153 y = 153/9 y = 17
