Answer:

x = 10 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first equation by 5 and 2nd equation by 3 then subtract equation 1 and 2, we get,

10x+15y= 130

9x+15y=120

( -) (-) (-)

x= 10

substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get

2x + 3y = 26

2*10 + 3y = 26

3y = 26-20

y =6/3

y= 2.i hope this helps

Katie is building a rectangular wall. The wall will be 332 bricks wide and 39 bricks tall. She has 15,000 bricks. Does she have

agasfer [191]

Katie has enough bricks because it only takes 12,948 bricks to build the wall. To get 12,948, you will multiply 332 by 39. So basically you are multiplying the width by how tall it is.

Given that rectangle MNOP~ rectangle STUV~, what is the length of ___ TU

IrinaK [193]

A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. The value of x or the length of TU is 22.5.

<h3>What is a rectangle?</h3>

That parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. A rectangle is always a parallelogram and a quadrilateral but the reverse statement may or may not be true.

Since all the rectangles are similar, therefore, the corresponding sides of the rectangle will be in ratio. Therefore,

$\dfrac{\text{Length of STUV}}{\text{Length of MNOP}} = \dfrac{9}{6}$

Similarly, the breadth will be,

$\dfrac{\text{Width of STUV}}{\text{Width of MNOP}} = \dfrac{\text{Length of STUV}}{\text{Length of MNOP}}\\\\\\\dfrac{\text{Width of STUV}}{\text{Width of MNOP}} = \dfrac{9}{6}\\\\\\\dfrac{x}{15}=\dfrac96\\\\\\x = \dfrac{9 \times 15}{6} = 22.5$

Hence, the value of x or the length of TU is 22.5.
