Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Each segment in ΔA"B"C" is 3 times the length of the corresponding segment in ΔABC. This is due to the dilation by a scale factor of 3.
Then you have ...
The latter relation matches the second choice.
You want to eliminate one of the terms (x or y) in one of the equations so you can solve for the other variable. You have to multiply by the opposite number of the coefficient to be able to eliminate the term in the other equation. If the x coefficient is 2, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by -2. If the y coefficient is -5, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by 5.

-4x + 9y= 9
x - 3y= -6
STEP 1:
multiply the bottom equation by 4
4(x- 3y)= 4(-6)
4x - 12y= -24
STEP 2:
add the top equation and the equation from step 2
-4x + 9y= 9
4x - 12y= -24
the x term cancels out
-3y= 15
divide both sides by -3
y= -5
STEP 2:
substitute the y value in either original equation to solve for x
x - 3y= -6
x - 3(-5)= -6
x + 15= -6
subtract 15 from both sides
x= -21
ANSWER: x= -21; y= -5

12)
-7x + y= -19
-2x + 3y= -19
STEP 1:
multiply the top equation by -3 to eliminate the y term and to solve for x
-3(-7x + y)= -3(-19)
21x - 3y= 57
STEP 2:
add the bottom equation and the equation from step 2 to solve for x
-2x + 3y= -19
21x - 3y= 57
the y term cancels out
19x= 38
divide both sides by 19
x= 2
STEP 3:
substitute the x value in step 2 to solve for y; you can use either original equation
-7x + y= -19
-7(2) + y= -19
-14 + y= -19
add 14 to both sides
y= -5
ANSWER: x= 2; y=-5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can read 100 pages in 5 hours.
40 pages in 2 hours. We need to get the unit rate. In this case, we need to get the number of pages read in 1 hour.
40 pages ÷ 2 hours = 20 pages per hour.
20 pages per hours * 5 hours = 100 pages.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
When you look at the triangle look at the 3 vertices. Now look at you answers given and choose one that combines all 3 vertices. You don't want your answer to contain a letter/number that represents the length of a side.
So in this case you don't want M or Y in you answer.
Your answer has to be made up of A X andT.
The only answer that uses AXT is answer B.
