Answer:

x=−1 and y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 3,and multiply the second equation by 1.

3(x−2y=−19)

1(−3x+5y=48)

Becomes:

3x−6y=−57

−3x+5y=48

Add these equations to eliminate x:

−y=−9

Then solve−y=−9for y:

−y=−9

(divide both sides by -1)

y=9

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation:

x−2y=−19

Substitute 9 for y in x−2y=−19:

x−(2)(9)=−19

x−18=−19(Simplify both sides of the equation)

x−18+18=−19+18(Add 18 to both sides)

x=−1

Answer:

x= -1

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this system of equation

let

x - 2y = -19.....................................equation 1

-3x + 5y = 48 .................................. equation2

from equation 1

x - 2y = -19.....................................equation 1

x = -19 + 2y................................... equation 3

substitute the value of x into equation 2

-3x + 5y = 48 .................................. equation2

-3(-19 + 2y) + 5y = 48

57 - 6y + 5y = 48

combine the like terms

-6y + 5y = 48 -57

-y = - 9

divide both side by -

y = 9

put y= 9 into equation 3

x = -19 + 2y................................... equation 3

x = -19 + 2(9)

x = -19 + 18

x = -1

therefore the value of x and y is -1 and 9 respectively

PLEASR HELP MEEEE ASAP​
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

A: Yes, I agree. Why? Because if you look at the shape, its a triangle right, and a triangle both sides are equal, while the bottom line is not. But because both sides are equal, and half of the triangle is MPN and the other side is QPN, they both are congruent (or equal to)

B: Like I said, both MPN and QPN are both equal, and if you remove the P, it would still be the same because the shape has not changed.

I hope I helped :)
