Answer:
x=8 and y=3 (So, yes!)
Step-by-step explanation:
I will solve your system by substitution.
(You can also solve this system by elimination.)
−x+4y=4;−x+3y=1
Step: Solve −x+4y=4 for x:
−x+4y+−4y=4+−4y(Add -4y to both sides)
−x=−4y+4
-x/-1 = -4y+4/-1 (Divide both sides by -1)
x=4y−4
Step: Substitute 4y−4 for x in −x+3y=1:
−x+3y=1
−(4y−4)+3y=1
−y+4=1(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−y+4+−4=1+−4(Add -4 to both sides)
−y=−3
-y/-1 = -3/-1 (Divide both sides by -1)
y=3
Step: Substitute 3 for y in x=4y−4:
=4y−4
x=(4)(3)−4
x=8(Simplify both sides of the equation)
<u>Answer:</u>
x=8 and y=3
For ∆RNM ~ ∆RPQ
=> RN/RP = RM/RQ
=> 7/8 = 10/14 which is wrong
So ∆RMN is not similar to ∆RQP
I think the answer is B. Or A.
Let me help you with this :)
John = x
Mike = y
x = 4 + 3y (4 more than 3 times)
x + y = 20 (we put the x above into this equation)
4 + 3y + y = 20
4y = 16 (we transfers the 4 on the left side to the right side and subtract it from the 20)
y = 4 (the answer is 4)
we use this for the equation:
x = 4 +3*4
x = 16
John is 16 years old and Mike is 4 years old :)
