Answer with Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
a + b = c
and a|c
i.e. a divides c.
We need to prove that a|b.
⇒ a = mb for some integer m
Since a|c,
So, mathematically, it is expressed as
c= ka
Now, we put the above value in a + b = c.
So, it becomes,

a=mb, here, m = k-1
Hence, proved.
-x + 5y = 8
multiply this equation by 3
-3x + 15y = 24
now add it to the other equation ( elimination)
-3x + 15y = 24
3x + 7y = -2
-----------------------
0x + 22 y = 22
divide each side by 22
y =1
substitute into -x + 5y =8 to find x
-x + 5(1) = 8
-x + 5 = 8
-x =3
divide by -1
x =-3
Answer (-3,1)

The base length of the triangle is 10 ft. and the height of the triangle is 20ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Height = base + 10
Area = 100 square ft
Area of a triangle= (1/2) (b) (h)
100 = (1/2) (b) (b + 10)
200 = b(b) + 10b
b(b) + 10b - 200 = 0
b(b) + 20b - 10b - 200 = 0
b ( b + 20) -10(b + 20) = 0
(b-10) (b+20) =0
b = 10 (or) b = -20
Here b is the length and cannot be negative.
So, b = 10ft
h = b + 10
h = 10 + 10
h = 20 ft.
The base length of the triangle is 10 ft. and the height of the triangle is 20ft.
