Answer:

x = 24

y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

∆DEF ~ ∆JHG

Therefore:

DE/JH = EF/HG = DF/JG

x/18 = 20/15 = 16/y

✔️Solve for x:

x/18 = 20/15

x/18 = 4/3

Cross multiply

x*3 = 4*18

3x = 72

x = 72/3

x = 24

✔️Solve for y:

20/15 = 16/y

4/3 = 16/y

Cross multiply

4*y = 16*3

4y = 48

y = 48/4

y = 12

Solve systems of equations by algebraically x-2y=7 <br> 2x+5y =5
Natali [406]

Answer:

(5,-1) or x=5 y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the substitution method to solve this!

<em>1. Pick one of your equations and solve for one of the variables. I chose the first equation and solved for x.</em>

x-2y=7

(Move the -2y to the other side of the equation in order to get the x by itself. You do the opposite, so it becomes +2y.)

x=2y+7

<em>2. Now take your second equation and plug in what you got for x into the x variable.</em>

2(2y+7)+5y=5

(Multiple 2 by everything inside of the parentheses.)

4y+14+5y=5

(We want to get the y by itself, so move the 14 to the other side.)

4y+5y=-14+5

(Combine all the like terms.)

9y=-9

(Divide the 9 from the y. What you do to one side you must do to the other.)

y=-1

<em>3. Since you have one variable solved for. Now take the first equation and plug in your y.</em>

x-2(-1)=7

(Multiple -2 by -1)

x+2=7

(Move the 2 to the other side in order to get the x by itself.)

x=5

<em>4. If needed, plug in your x and y values into the equations in order to check your answer.</em>

Hope this could help!
