Given:
The system of equations is
...(i)
...(ii)
To find:
The number that must be multiplied with the second equation to eliminate the y-variable.
Solution:
Coefficient of y variable in equation (i) is 3 and in equation (ii) is -1.
To eliminate y-variable the absolute value of coefficients of y-variables should be same.
So, we need to multiply the second equation by 3 to eliminate the y-variable
Multiplying equation (ii) by 3, we get
...(iii)
Adding (i) and (iii), we get
Divide both sides by 7.
Put x=12 in (i).
Divide both sides by 10.
Therefore, x=12 and y=10.

The given quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram since the opposite sides are of same length AB and DC is 4 and AD and BC is 2.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
ABCD is a quadrilateral with their opposite sides are congruent (equal).
The both pairs of opposite sides are given as AB = 3 + x
, DC = 4x
, AD = y + 1
, BC = 2y.
- AB and DC are opposite sides and have same measure of length.
- AD and BC are opposite sides and have same measure of length.
<u>To find the length of AB and DC :</u>
AB = DC
3 + x = 4x
Keep x terms on one side and constant on other side.
3 = 4x - x
3 = 3x
x = 1
Substiute x=1 in AB and DC,
AB = 3+1 = 4
DC = 4(1) = 4
<u>To find the length of AD and BC :</u>
AD = BC
y + 1 = 2y
Keep y terms on one side and constant on other side.
2y-y = 1
y = 1
Substiute y=1 in AD and BC,
AD = 1+1 = 2
BC = 2(1) = 2
Therefore, the opposite sides are of same length AB and DC is 4 and AD and BC is 2. The given quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.
