Answer:

Assume ΔABC is an acute triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the triangle ABC.

We have to tell the first step of indirect proving ΔABC is not an acute triangle.

An indirect proof, also known a proof by contradiction. When we use indirect proof method, we assume the opposite of our theory to be true and then by applying our assumed theory we contradict the given statement which proves our supposition is wrong. In other words, we assume our theory is false.

Hence, our first step is to

Assume ΔABC is an acute triangle.

Third option is correct.

Answer:

x = 1 and y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use substitution because you know that x = y - 4, and plug this into the first equation to get -10(y - 4) + 3y = 5, or -10y + 40 + 3y = 5. This is -7y = -35 so y = 5. Plug this into the 2nd equation to get that x = 1 and y = 5.
