Use an equation to find the value of each indicated variable.

Answer:
y =36
z= 54
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles 3y and 2y form a straight line, so they add to 180 degrees.
3y+2y =180
5y = 180
Divide each side by 5
5y/5= 180/5
y =36
The angles z, y, from a 90 degree angle
z+y =90
z+36 = 90
Subtract 36 from each side
z+36-36 = 90-36
z = 54
Answer:
y = 36°
z = 54°
Step-by-step explanation:
3y + 2y = 180
(Angles on a straight line)
5y = 180
y = 36°
y + z + 90 = 180
(Angles on a straight line)
36 + z = 90
z = 54°
6y + z = 270
