Hello there!

8x = 2y + 5
3x = y + 7
Use the substitution property
We need to solve 3x = y + 7 for y
3x = y + 7
3x - y = 7
-y = 7 - 3x
Divide both sides by -1
-y/-1 = -3x -7/-1
y = 3x - 7
Substitute 3x - 7 for y in 8x = 2y + 5
8x = 2y + 5
8x = 2(3x - 7) + 5
8x = 6x - 14 + 5
8x = 6x - 9
8x - 6x = -9
2x = -9
x= -9/2
To find y, we need to substitute -9/2 for x in y = 3x -7
y = 3x - 7
y = 3(-9/2) - 7
y = -41/2

The correct answer is option A (-9/2; -41/2)

Good luck with your studies!

Determine the values of the variables in the parallelograms below help me please
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Part 1)

x=-11

m=170\°

Part 2)

x=-5, x=1

m=-10, m=14

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a parallelogram opposite sides and opposite angles are congruent, and consecutive angles are supplementary

Part 1)

<u>Find the value of x</u>

25=-3x-8 ----> opposite sides are congruent

solve for x

25=-3x-8

3x=-8-25

x=-33/3=-11

<u>Find the value of m</u>

(70+(m-60))=180\° ----> consecutive angles are supplementary

solve for m

m=180\°-10\°=170\°

Part 2)

<u>Find the value of x</u>

5=x^{2}+4x ---> opposite sides are congruent

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure N 1  

The solutions are

x=-5, x=1

<u>Find the value of m</u>

(m^{2}-4m)=140\° ---> opposite sides are congruent

solve for m

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure N 2  

The solutions are  

m=-10, m=14

Answer:

<em>y = - x + 5 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

A(1, 4)

B(4, 1)

m_{AB} = \frac{1-4}{4-1} = - 1

y - 1 = - 1 ( x - 4 )

<em>y = - x + 5</em>
