Answer:

Both would work.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call Jackie's apples a, then Mark has a - 4 apples. Therefore, together they have a + (a - 4) apples, and we know that they have a total of 12 apples so we can write a + (a - 4) = 12 to represent the situation. On the other hand, if Mark has a apples, then Jackie has a + 4 apples, so we can also write a + (a + 4) = 12 to represent the situation as well. Therefore, both of the equations would work. Hope this helps!

Answer:

(x=0, y=11)

(x=2, y=9)

Step-by-step explanation:

first equation substitution for x first.

y=11-x

plug into 2nd equation

(x+2)^2+(11-x-7)^2=20

this should lead you into a quadratics equation.

you get x=0, x=2.

do the same for y value this time, subbing in the x value

(11-y+2)^2+(y-7)^2=20

this also leads into a quad equation

solve and you get y=11, and y=9
