Answer:

13.9 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to answer this.  Folding the paper along its diagonal produces two triangles; each one has shorter side 8.5 in and longer side 11 in.  According to the Pyth. Thm., (8.5)^2 + 11^2 = 193.25, which results in the diagonal length √193.25, or approx. 13.9 in.

Using elimination, we add the equations, but this time from left to right. This process wants to elimination a variable. So 2x plus -2x equals 0. Moving on the next variable, 6y plus -y is 5y. On to the last variable, 18 plus 12 is 30. So we have this equation, 5y=30. 30/5 is 6, so y=6. We plug 6 into y in one of the equations you choose. In this case, I'm going to use the first equation. Plugging 6, we have this equation, 2x plus 36 is 18. 18-36 is -18. We then have this equation, 2x=-18. We know -9 times 2 is -18, so our x value is -9, So, our y=6, and our x=-9.
