There should be another equation in order to solve this problem using simultaneous equations.

Otherwise, there will be more than one solution to this problem as there are different combinations of values for ( x ) & ( y ) which can be given.

For example, one answer could be:

x = 2

y = - 1 / 2

So if we substitute the values into the equation it would be as follows:

5x + 4y = 8

5 ( 2 ) + 4 ( - 1 / 2 ) = 8

10 + - 2 = 8

10 - 2 = 8

8 = 8

Another answer could be:

x = 4

y = - 3

So if we substitute the values into the equation it would be as follows:

5x + 4y = 8

5 ( 4 ) + 4 ( - 3 ) = 8

20 + - 12 = 8

20 - 12 = 8

8 = 8

As you can see, there are more than one solution for this equation. So unless the problem is asking you to just give one of various solutions and isn't asking for one definitive solution, then you will require another equation in order to solve this problem.

How do you solve compound event please hurry
egoroff_w [7]
There are different formulas for calculating the two types of compound events: Say A and B are two events, then for mutually exclusive events: P(A or B) = P (A) + P(B). For mutually inclusive events, P (A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).

Given: MNFD is a trapezoid.
Rama09 [41]
A trapezoid with legs MN = FD is an isosceles trapezoid.
An isosceles trapezoid has diagonals that are congruent, therefore: MF = ND.
A quadrilateral with diagonals congruent and perpendicular is a square.
In a square, the height coincides with the side.
The area of a square is given by A = s²
Therefore, the area of MNFD is h²

Classify each pair of numbered angles.
kifflom [539]
Adjacent angles are angles with a common side and vertex, linear pairs are adjacent angles that are supplementary, and vertical angles are angles made by the same two lines but on opposite sides.

For the first one, 5 and 6 clearly do not share a side but they are made up by the same 2 lines and are opposite of each other, making them vertical.

For the next one, since the angles only share 1 line (and not a side) they can't be any of the above.
