<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -6.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of y is equal to 3.</u></h3>

8x + 2y = -42

4x + 7y = -3

In the first equation, subtract 8x from both sides.

2y = -42 - 8x

Divide all terms by 2.

y = -21 - 4x

Now that we have a value of y, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for x.

4x + 7(-21 - 4x) = -3

Distributive property.

4x - 147 - 28x = -3

Combine like terms.

-24x - 147 = -3

Add 147 to both sides.

-24x = 144

Divide both sides by -24.

x = -6

Now that we have a true value for x, we can plug it into either equation to solve for y.

8(-6) + 2y = -42

-48 + 2y = -42

Add 48 to both sides.

2y = 6

Divide both sides by 2.

y = 3

Properties of a circle:
ExtremeBDS [4]
Tangent is a line that touches the circle at one point going infintiely in both directions

chord is a line that goes from one side of the circle to the other and stays inside the circle, an example would be the diameter which is the longest chord in the circle

secant is a line that goes through the circle at 2 points, it's like a chord but it extends outside the circle

arc length is a section of the circumference
it's like the length of the crust when you cut a slice of pie or the crust of a pizza

PLEASE HELP ASAP! Find the area of quadrilateral ABCD in each case.
Arisa [49]

Answer:

The area is 5 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The area of the square of side length 3 which contains

   the quadrilateral ABCD = 3 × 3 = 9 units²

∵ The area of the 4 triangles on the sides of the quadrilateral ABCD

   = 1/2(2)(1) + 1/2(1)(2) + 1/2(2)(1) + 1/2(1)(2) = 4 units²

∴ The area of quadrilateral ABCD = 9 - 4 = 5 units²

This means that each point where the two lines intersect is a
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: When two or more lines cross each other in a plane, they are called intersecting lines. The intersecting lines share a common point, which exists on all the intersecting lines, and is called the point of intersection. Here, lines P and Q intersect at point O, which is the point of intersection.

I think this the answer‍♀️
