Answer = 8y
Step-by-step explanation:
if an octagon has 8 sides and each side is = to y then the total side length in the primiter is = to 8sides times y or 8y
25% is 1/4.
This means that 1/4 of the books in the library is 54, so just multiply 54 by 4, which gives you 100%, or all of the books. 54 times 4 is equal to 216, so there are 216 books in the library.

is the correct answer
2a + 3b = 6
5a + 2b = 4
We multiply the first equation by 5 and the second by 2 and and subtract the second from the first:
10a + 15b = 30
-10a -4b = -8
11b = 22
b = 2
2a + 3(2) = 6
2a = 0
a = 0
Checking,
5(0) + 2(2) = 4
4 = 4, true
