There are two ways to do this but the way I prefer is to make one of the equations in terms of one variable and then 'plug this in' to the second equation. I will demonstrate
Look at equation 1,
this can quite easily be manipulated to show 
.
Then because there is a y in the second equation (and both equations are simultaneous) we can 'plug in' our new equation where y is in the second one
which can then be solved for x since there is only one variable 
and then with our x solution we can work out our y solution by using the equation we manipulated 
.
So the solution to these equations is x=-2 when y=6

Answer:
B :
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide a rhombus using its diagonals, you get 4 right triangles, whose legs are both 1/2 the length of the diagonals.
This means that the legs of one of those 4 triangles have lengths of 2x/2, and 8x/2, so the legs of one of those triangles x and 4x. This makes the length of one side equal to . Because all 4 sides are the same length, you multiply this value by 4, and get
, which is B.
