So you will need to solve for x and y before evaluating 2x+y....
2x-y=9, y=2x-9 now this will make 4x^2-y^2=171 become:
4x^2-(2x-9)^2=171
4x^2-(4x^2-36x+81)=171
36x-81=171
36x=252
x=7, now we can use 2x-y=9 to solve for y...
2(7)-y=9
14-y=9
-y=-5
y=5
now we know that x=7 and y=5, 2x+y becomes:
2(7)+5
14+5
19
Answer:
6x + 12y
Step-by-step explanation:
Using distributive property means multiplying the number outside of the parentheses to each individual number within the parentheses:
3 × 2x = 6x
3 × 4y = 12y
Since there is an addition sign within the parentheses, we add these two numbers together. However, they are not like terms so their sum cannot actually be calculated
6x + 12y
The shape is a triangle, which only has 3 sides.
