Answer:

Smaller is 5, larger is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

y is larger, x is smaller

2y = 3 + 5x

4y + 3x = 71

Let's solve for y in the first one, then substitute that into the second one.

y = 3/2 + 5/2x

4(3/2 + 5/2x) + 3x = 71

12/2 + 20/2x + 3x = 71

6 + 10x + 3x = 71

13x = 65

x = 5

Substitute that in to the first equation:

2y = 3 + 5(5)

2y = 3 + 25

2y = 28

y = 14

check those answers in the second equation

4y + 3x = 71

4(14) + 3(5)

= 56 + 15 =71

I need help please I will greatly appreciate it

Answer:

  B.  Square

Step-by-step explanation:

When in doubt, it can help to plot the points on a graph.

__

By looking at the coordinate values, you see that the first two points have the same y-coordinate (0) and the other two points have the same y-coordinate (-4). These points are on horizontal lines that are 4 units apart.

Looking at the x-coordinates, you see that one pair of points has x-coordinates 4, and the other pair has x-coordinates 8. That is, these pairs of points are on vertical lines that are 4 units apart.

Vertical and horizontal lines are at right angles to each other. That means the figure must be a rectangle or square. The lengths of the sides are all 4 units, so the figure is a square.
