Answer:

f = -5, s = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

F= first number

S= second number

4f - s = -14

f + 3s = -23

3(4f - s = -14)

12f - 3s = -42

+ f + 3s = -23

13f = -65

————

f = -5

4f - s = -14

4(-5) - s = -14

-20 - s = -14

+20 +20

-s = 6

———

-1

s = -6

What’s the answer for this one??

KIM [24]

Answer:

It is the second one.

Step-by-step explanation:

a and e are equal because they are mirrored. d and b are equal because they are on the same line and at the same point where the parallel lines go through. b and f are also mirrored. That leaves c and e which don't match.
