Answer:

x = 4, y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x + 2y = 8 → (1)

2x + 5y = - 2 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 2 and (2) by - 3 and adding eliminates the x- term

6x + 4y = 16 → (3)

- 6x - 15y = 6 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate x , that is

- 11y = 22 ( divide both sides by - 11 )

y = - 2

Substitute y = - 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

3x + 2(- 2) = 8

3x - 4 = 8 ( add 4 to both sides )

3x = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 4

solution is x = 4, y = - 2

ASHA 777 [7]

You are given triangle RST with vertices R(-3,-1), S(-1,-1) and T(-4,-5).

1. Apply the rotation of 90° counterclockwise about the origin that has a rule:

(x,y)→(-y,x).

Then

  • R(-3,-1)→R''(1,-3),
  • S(-1,-1)→S''(1,-1),
  • T(-4,-5)→T''(5,-4).

2. Second transformation is translation 1 unite up with a rule:

(x,y)→(x,y+1).

So

  • R''(1,-3)→R'(1,-2);
  • S''(1,-1)→S'(1,0);
  • T''(5,-4)→T'(5,-3).

As you can see these points are exactly those from the task condition.

Answer: 1st transfomation is rotation of 90° counterclockwise about the origin and 2nd transformation is translation 1 unite up
