Answer: (6, 9), (3, 13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Left picture:

opposite side of parallelograms are congruent (equal)

3x = 18 3y - 1 = 26

÷3 ÷3 +1 +1

x = 6 3y = 27

÷3 ÷3

y = 9

**************************************************************************

Right picture:

diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other so the left side and right sides of each diagonal are congruent

20 = y + 7

-7 -7

13 = y

16 = x + y

16 = x + 13

-13 -13

3 = x

The difference of two numbers is 34 and their sum is 338

Assoli18 [71]

X-y=34
x+y=338

We can use elimination in this problem.

2x=372
x=186

186+y=338
y=338-186
y=152
