The correct answer is A: x=2 and y=-3. Either method would work, but for example, let's use elimination. If you multiply the second equation by 5, you get: 10x +5y = 5. When you add both equations, you can then cross out both y terms. You are left with one equation that reads: 13x=26. Solving for x gives you 2. You can substitute 2 in for x in either equation and you will receive -3 for your y value.

Answer
Write an expression for the number of pencils Maggie gives to jamil.
To prove
Let us assume that the number of pencils Katie have = x
As given
Katie gives Maggie half of her pencils.
As given
Maggie keeps 5 and gives the rest to jamil.
Thus
Therefore the expression for the number of pencils Maggie gives to jamil are 
.
Sin 45° = opposite side / hypotenuse
1/2 = 8/h
h = 16
2)6/12 = 1/2
1/2 = sin 45°
6√3/12 = √3/2
√3/2 = cos 30°
Sum of angles of triangle = 180°
The 3rd angle = 180 - (45 + 30) = 180 - 75 = 105°
Angles = 30° , 45° , 105°
