Answer:

m1 = 62°, m2 = 118°

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of a linear pair of angles is a pair of angles that are adjacent and add up to 180°.

Then, we have the following equation

[tex]x-9+x+47 =180 [/tex]

Then,

[tex]2x+38=180[/tex]

Subtracting 38 on both sides

[tex] 2x = 180-38 = 142[/tex]

Dividing by two, we get x = 71. Then m1 = 71-9 = 62, m2 = 71+47=118[/tex]
