Answer:

5x - 20 is the length of the median

The length of the median = (short side + long side) / 2

5x -20 = (2x +6 + 4x + 2) / 2

5x -20 = (6x +8) / 2

10x -40 = 6x + 8

4x = 48

x = 12

The first three steps in determining the solution set of the system of equations algebraically are shown.
jolli1 [7]
Since both are equivalent to y, the equations must be equivalent.
x^2-x-3= -3x+5
x^2+2x-8=0

(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=-4, x=2

Plug the values of x in to either equation
y=-3(-4)+5
y= 12+5
y=17

y= -3(2)+5
y=-6+5
y=-1

Final answer: (-4,17) and (2,-1)
