x - 2y = 5
-3x + 2y = 7
-----------------add
-2x = 12
x = 12/-2
x = -6
-3x + 2y = 7
-3(-6) + 2y = 7
18 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 18
2y = - 11
y = -11/2
solution is : (-6,-11/2)...x = -6 and y = -11/2
Answer:
8 units ^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is given by
A = 1/2 bh where b is the length of the base and h is the height
b = LK = 4 units
h = J to where LK would be extended to, which would be 4 units
A = 1/2 (4) * 4
A = 8 units ^2
