Hey!

Here's how you would solve it with elimination:

-2x + 3y = 7

5x + 8y = -2

Multiply first equation by 5 and the second one by 2:

-10x + 15y = 35

10x + 16y = -4

Add the two equations:

-10x + 15y = 35

+

10x + 16y = -4

------------------------

31y = 31

y = 1

Plug this back into one of the original equation:

5x + 8y = -2

5x + 8(1) = -2

5x + 8 = -2

5x = -10

x = -2

Now you have your answer:

y = 1

x = -2

What is<br> -1 5/6 - (-3 1/4) ?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

1\frac{5}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Eliminating a negative and changing our operation

1\frac{5}{6} +3\frac{1}{4}

Rewriting our equation with parts separated

-1-\frac{5}{6} +3+\frac{1}{4}

Solving the whole number parts

-1+3=2

Solving the fraction parts

-\frac{5}{6} +\frac{1}{4} =[?]

Find the LCD of 5/6 and 1/4 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 12

-\frac{10}{12} +\frac{3}{12}=-\frac{7}{12}

Combining the whole and fraction parts

2-\frac{7}{12} =1\frac{5}{12}

Triangles J K L and X Y Z are shown. Angles K J L and Y X Z are right angles. The length of Y X is 10. The length of hypotenuse
pickupchik [31]

ΔJKL and ΔXYZ CANNOT be congruent triangles because: the hypotenuse of one triangle is equal in length to the leg of the other triangle.

<h3>What are Congruent Triangles?</h3>

Congruent triangles are triangles whose corresponding sides are congruent to each other.

The hypotenuse of triangle JKL(KL = 10) is congruent to a leg of triangle XYZ (YX = 10). This implies that they cannot be congruent triangles.

Therefore, ΔJKL and ΔXYZ CANNOT be congruent triangles because: the hypotenuse of one triangle is equal in length to the leg of the other triangle.
