Answer:
x = 
, y = 
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Isolate for x in one of the equations:
2x = 9x - 14y
2x-9x = 9x-9x -14y
-7x = -14y
-7x/-7 = -14y/-7
x = 2y
2. Substitute 2y in for x in the second equation:
9(2y) = 40 - 14y
3. Simplify:
18y = 40 - 14y
4. Isolate for y:
18y+14y = 40 -14y+14y
32y = 40
32y/32 = 40/32
y =
5. Substitute the new y-value into the simplified expression x = 2y:
x = 2(5/4)
x =

Answer:
m∠K = 37° and n = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
A lot of math is about matching patterns. Here, the two patterns we want to match are different versions of the same Law of Cosines relation:
- a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)
- k² = 31² +53² -2·31·53·cos(37°)
<h3>Comparison</h3>
Comparing the two equations, we note these correspondences:
Comparing these values to the given information, we see that ...
- KN = c = 53 . . . . . . . . . . matching values 53
- NM = a = k . . . . . . . . . . . matching values k
- KM = b = n = 31 . . . . . . . matching values 31
- ∠K = ∠A = 37° . . . . . . . matching side/angle names
Abby apparently knew that ∠K = 37° and n = 31.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Side and angle naming for the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines are as follows. The vertices of the triangle are labeled with single upper-case letters. The side opposite is labeled with the same lower-case letter, or with the two vertices at either end.
Vertex and angle K are opposite side k, also called side NM in this triangle.
