Question #2
Erica will have to work for 14 hours in order to buy her sneakers. 
How to solve:
You subtract $31 from $150 which equals to $119 
You multiply 8.50 (which is the amount of money she gets paid every hour) by the answers they gave you. 
8.50 multiplied by 14 is 199 
Erica had to work 14 hours to make $199 
Your answer is D) 14
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Comparing each pair of lines,
AB and EF,
BC and FG,
CD and GH,
DA and HE.
For, AB and EF,
If we take a look at both the lines they are the mirror image of each other, the distance between point A and B is 1 unit upwards, and 2 unit sidewise, similarly between point E and F the distance is 1 unit upwards, and 2 unit sidewise. therefore, the length of both the lines is the same.
Also, we can use the formula, for the distance between two points on a coordinate plane,
,
As we can see in the image,
A = (-1, 1),
B = (-3, 2),
C = (-4, 4),
D = (-2, 6),
E = (2, 0),
F = (4, 1),
G = (5, 3),
H = (3, 5),
Solving using the formula,
AB = EF = √5,
BC = FG = √5,
CD = GH = √8,
DA = HE = √26,
Therefore, the length of all the sides of the polygon are the same,
Hence, the two figures are congruent.

Answer:
 x = -1 and y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this equation we say 
let
2x-5y=3.......................................... equation 1
 4y-x=-3............................................equation 2
from equation 2
 4y-x=-3............................................equation 2
4y + 3 = x
i.e
x = 4y + 3 .............................................  equation 3
put x = 4y + 3 in equation 1
2(4y +3) - 5y = 3
8y + 6 -5y = 3
3y +6 = 3
3y= 3-6
3y -3
divide both sides by the coefficient  of y  which is 3
3y/3 = -3/3
y = -1
put y = -1 into equation 3
x = 4y + 3 .............................................  equation 3
x = 4(-1) + 3
x = -4 + 3
x = -1
therefore the value of x = -1 and y = -1 respectively
 
        
             
        
        
        
The shape of the distribution is rectangular, also Uniform and Symmetrical
