Answer:
NR = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that both trjangles are similar, therefore, it follows that their corresponding side lengths would be proportional to each other. Thus:
Cross multiply
(addition property of equality)
Divide both sides by 10
x = 7
✔️NR = 2x - 2
Plug in the value of x
NR = 2(7) - 2 = 14 - 2
NR = 12
Equation 1 is ,
Equation 2 is [/tex] 3x-2y = -1 [/tex]
for first equation LCD= 3 *5 = 15 , So we multiply whole equation by 15
Now multiply second equation by -3 , to make the coefficient of y equal and opposite , so that we can apply the elimination method
Add both the equations
Divide both sides by 11
Plug in any one of the equation we get
3(3) -2y = -1
9 - 2y = -1
subtract 9 from both sides
-2y = -10
divide both sides by -2
y=5
So the solution is x= 3 , y= 5
Which means
a. The system is consistent and independent. TRUE
