Use addition or substitution to find the value of y for this set of equations. 4x + 13y = 40 4x + 3y = -40

1 answer:

5 0

4x + 13y = 40
4x + 3y = -40

multiply second equation by -1

4x + 13y = 40
-4x - 3y = 40

add equations together

10y = 80
y = 8

put y in either original equation

4x + 3(8) = -40
4x + 24 = -40

subtract 24 from both sides

4x = 64

x=16
y=8

Answer:

P (−11, 13), Q (−17, −19), R (23, 27)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The reflection of a figure across the x-axis has the following rule

(x,y) -----> (x,-y)

P(-11,-13) -----> P(-11,13)

Q(-17,19) -----> Q(-17,-19)

R(23,-27) ----> R(23,27)
