Let's try the actual solution of the system
<span>y = –2x + 1
y = –2x – 3
Note that the slopes of the graphs of these two lines are the same: -2.
That means that the lines are parallel to one another.
Only the y-intercepts (1 and -3) are different.
Since the 2 lines never intersect, the system has no solution.
</span>
X/8 = 19/13 => x = (8*19)/13 = 11.69 inches long;
The answer would be 12 feet square.
That’s because taking out the square is taking out an area of 4 feet square. If you substitute the 4 feet square back in, that would fill in the empty spot marked with the 2 feet by 2 feet dimensions. Then, you could treat it like a rectangle of 4 by 3. If you multiply them you’ll get 12 feet square which is your answer. Hope this helps
