  • therefore the two triangle are similar
  • this means that 10/24=x/3x-3

X+2y=9 and x=2y+1<br><br>helppppppppppppppppp meeeeereeer​
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer: y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to use systems of equations, basically since we know what x equals, we plug that into first equation so:

since x=2y+1,

we can say that:

(2y+1)+2y=9

then we solve this equation,

first we expand the brackets- 2y+1+2y=9,

then we combine like terms- 4y+1=9

then we take 1 away from both sides- 4y=8

then we divided both sides by 4

y=2

Hope this helps xx
