Answer:

x = -3 , y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{x - 8 y = 21 | (equation 1)

3 x - 8 y = 15 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{3 x - 8 y = 15 | (equation 1)

x - 8 y = 21 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/3 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{3 x - 8 y = 15 | (equation 1)

0 x - (16 y)/3 = 16 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 3/16:

{3 x - 8 y = 15 | (equation 1)

0 x - y = 3 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:

{3 x - 8 y = 15 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -3 | (equation 2)

Add 8 × (equation 2) to equation 1:

{3 x+0 y = -9 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -3 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:

{x+0 y = -3 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -3 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer:  {x = -3 , y = -3

h^2=64
h=8

Then use the formula bh/2 to find area of the triangle.
