Question

I need help with #11 and #12 how do I do this?

Answer 1

Answer:

  11. x = 6; y = 6.5

  12. x = 2; y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In each figure, the hash marks on the lines indicate the parallel lines (marked with red arrows) are equally-spaced. That means the two expressions involving x are equal to each other, and the two expressions involving y are equal to each other.

__

11. 2x +1 = x +7

  x = 6 . . . . . . . subtract (x+1) from both sides

and

  3y -8 = y +5

  2y = 13 . . . . add (8-y) to both sides

  y = 6.5 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

__

12. x +3 = 3/2x +2

  1 = 1/2x . . . . . subtract (x+2)

  2 = x . . . . . . . multiply by 2

and

  2y -1 = 3y -5

  4 = y . . . . . . add (5 -2y)

Answer 2

Answer:

11. x=6;y=6.5  12. x=2;y=4
