5x + 3x =8x and 2y- 2y =0 so the answer is 8x I guess I’m sorry idk

Answer:

(3,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 17

3x - 2y = 7

Add the two equations to eliminate y

5x + 2y = 17

3x - 2y = 7

---------------------

8x = 24

Divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 24/8

x =3

Now we need to find y

5x+2y = 17

5(3) +2y =17

15+2y =17

Subtract 15 from each side

15-15+2y =17-15

2y =2

Divide each side yby2

2y/2 =2/2

y=1

Suppose lines EF and GH are reflected over the line Y equals X to form the lines JK and LM which statement would be true about t

katrin [286]

Answer:

A) JK and LM will be parallel to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

On reflection on $y=x$ line the x co-ordinate changes with y co-ordinate and y co-ordinate changes with x co-ordinate

$(x,y)\rightarrow (y,x)$

Points on line EF

$(0,6) , (-5,-2)$

On reflection of this line on $y=x$ the new points we get for line JK are

$(6,0),(-2,-5)$

Points on line GH

$(-4,9),(-9,1)$

On reflection on y=x line the new points we get for line LM are

$(9,-4),(1,-9)$

Slope of line JK

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x2-x1}\\m=\frac{(-5)-0}{(-2)-6} \\m=\frac{-5}{-8}=\frac{5}{8}$

Slope of line LM

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x2-x1}\\m=\frac{(-9)-(-4)}{1-9} \\m=\frac{-9+4}{-8}=\frac{-5}{-8}\\m=\frac{5}{8}$

For two line to be parallel, their slopes will be same.

$m_{JK} =\frac{5}{8} , m_{LM}=\frac{5}{8}$

Since slopes of lines JK and LM are same therefore we can say that these are parallel to each other.
