The gcf of these two numbers is 1, because 189 and 200 don't have any common factors.
Answer:
Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 37 degrees ( vertical angle to 37 )
c = 180 - 37 = 143 degrees (adjacent angles add up to 180).
b = 180 - 37 - 109 = 34 degrees (angles in a triangle sum to 180 degrees).
In order to solve using elimination, we need to be able to get rid of one variable, so that we can solve for the other. We need to subtract these two equations given from one another, or multiply the bottom equation by a negative and add them together.
(-5x + 6y = 8) - (-5x + 4y = 2)
(-5x + 6y = 8) + (5x - 4y = -2)
0x + 2y = 6
2y = 6
y = 3
Now that we know the value of one variable, we can take that value and plug it back into one of the original equations and solve for the value of the other variable.
-5x + 6y = 8
-5x + 6(3) = 8
-5x + 18 = 8
-5x = -10
x = 2
The solution to this system of equations is (2, 3).
Hope this helps!! :)
