Last year mark was 46 inches tall.this year ,mark's height is 3 inches less than peter's height.peater is 52 inches tall .how tall is mark? write an equation

x = 15, y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Three parallel lines were divided by two lines above . The angle 62° is a parallel angle to angle (4x + 2)° . Parallel angle are usually equal.

Therefore,

62 = 4x + 2

62 - 2 = 4x

4x = 60

x = 60/4

x = 15

The angle (12y)° is a parallel angle to 144°. This means the angle (12y)° is equal to 144°.

12y = 144

y = 144/12

y = 12
