x -y = 1
5x + 3y = 45
Solve the first equation for x: x = y + 1
Substitute x in the second with y + 1
5x + 3y = 45
5(y + 1) + 3y = 45
5y + 5 + 3y = 45
8y + 5 = 45
8y = 40
y = 5
Substitute 5 for y in x = y + 1
x = y + 1
x = 5 + 1
x = 6
Answer: (6, 5)
In point for (2,7) and in Equation form x=2 y=7
Given:
A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y).
To find:
The value of y.
Solution:
Three points are collinear if:

A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y). It means, these points are collinear.



Subtract 12 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 2.


Therefore, the value of y is -6.
The base length is 27 cm.
area of a parallelogram is A=b*h
plug in the known area and height into the formula: 513=19*b
divide off the 19: b=27
