I believe this is scale factor? SF=new/old. 10/8= a scale factor of 1.25 (the image gets 1.25x bigger). To find x, multiply 5 by 1.25 and subtract the original length of 5 (you subtract this length because x is only the value of the new part of the triangle). X=6.25-5, X=1.25. Try to find y yourself using this scale factor. (Brainliest would be appreciated)

Answer:
Then, a=-1 and b=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve the following system of equations using the adition method:
2a+3b=-1 (i)
3a+5b=-2 (ii)
First, we multiply the equation (i) by -3 and the equation (ii) by 2, so we get:
-6a-9b=3
6a+10b=-4
Adding the two equations we have:
-6a-9b=3
6a+10b=-4
--------------------------
0 + b = -1
Then b=-1. Now, let's substitute the value of b into equation (i):
2a+3b=-1
2a + 3(-1) = -1
2a -3 = -1
2a = 2
a = 1
Then, a=-1 and b=-1
