Answer:

y=3 x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(2y-8)+2y=12

-6y+24+2y=12

-4y+24=12

-4y=-12

y=3

x=2(3)-8

6-8

x=-2

-3x + 2y = 12
-3 (2y - 8) + 2y = 12
-6y + 24 + 2y = 12
-4y + 24 = 12
-4y = -12
y = 3

x = 2y - 8
x = 2(3) -8
x = 6-8
x = -2

Therefore, the coordinates are (-2, 3).

It says that the triangles are congruent (same size). Also, a triangle's angles add up to 180 degrees. In both of these triangles, one angle is 90° and another angle is 52°. The other angle is 180°-90°-52°=38°.

Solve these equations to find x and y: 2x+18=38, 3y+11=38

$2x+18=38\\2x=20\\x=10$
