Answer:
x = 7, y = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The consecutive sides of a kite are congruent, thus
2x + 5 = x + 12 ( subtract x from both sides )
x + 5 = 12 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
x = 7
And
y - 4 = x + 5, that is
y - 4 = 7 + 5 = 12 ( add 4 to both sides )
y = 16

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5y = 14 -------------(i)
x + 3y = 16 ----------------(ii)
To eliminate x, multiply the second equation by (-2)
(ii)*(-2) -2x - 6y = -32
(i) <u> 2x + 5y = 14 </u> { Now add & x is eliminated}
- y = - 18 {divide by (-1)}
y = 18
Plug in y =18 in Equation (i)
2x + 5*18 = 14
2x + 90 = 14
2x = 14 - 90
2x = -76
x = -76/2
x = -38
