Step 1: Add the two equations together to get just one equation.
2x + y + x - y = 5 + 1
Step 2: Simplify.
3x = 6
Step 3: Divide by 3 on both sides.
3x / 3 = 6 / 3
x = 2
Therefore, the answer is x=2
Answer:
42.5 units²
Explenation:
The area of the square on the left is 5×5=25.
At the top you do 12-5=7 to find the length of the tringle.
Than it is 7×5=35 than this divided by two, so 17.5.
You add both areas 25+17.5=42.5
