X = 7
Y = 16

Since we know that the bottom two sides are congruent we can make an equation to solve for that X first [2x + 5 = x + 12] . (since we cannot make an equation with the two congruent sides at the top because there are different variables).
Now that we've solved for X which is 7, we can plug it into the top equation [y - 4 = x + 5] which would simplify to [ y - 4 = 12] which would give us 16 for Y

The graph shows the system y=2x+1 y=2x^2+1 Which ordered pairs are solutions of the system?

Hey!

To solve this problem, we would really have to graph both equations.

OPEN THE FIRST IMAGE

The first image I provided was the image of this equation graphed: y=2x+1

OPEN THE SECOND IMAGE

The second image I provided was the image of this equation graphed: y=2x^2+1

PLEASE DO NOT LOOK AT THE THIRD IMAGE YET!

The first image has two points. One at ( -0.5, 0 ) and the other at ( 0, 1 ).

The second image has only one point, which is at ( 0, 1 ).

OPEN THE THIRD IMAGE

Now, when both are combined we see that they intersect at two points, which are ( 0, 1 ) and ( 1, 3 ).

So, our answer is...

The ordered pairs that are the solution to the system are ( 0,1 ) and ( 1,3 ).

Hope this helped!
