First, let's cancel out the x by multiplying 2x + 18y = -9 by -2.
-2 ( 2x + 18y = -9) = -4x -36y = 18
Then, we combine the two equations.
-4x + 4x = 0
18y - 36y = -18y
-27 + 18 = -9
Our new equation is -18y = -9.
Now, divide both sides by -18.
-18y / -18 = y
-9/ -18 = 1/2
y = 1/2
We can plug in a value for y since y = 1/2 now.
Let's use 2x + 18y = -9
Plug in y.
2x + 18(1/2) = -9
2x + 9 = -9
Then, subtract 9 from both sides.
2x = -18
Divide by 2.
2x/2 = x
-18/2 = -9
x = -9
Lastly, we can plug in both x and y values to see it works.
2(-9) + 18(1/2) = -9
-18 + 9 = -9
Therefore, the values of x and y does work.
x = -9
y = 1/2
If the rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle EFGH, side CD is proportional to the side
C. GH
The order of the letters in naming the rectangle gives us which sides are adjacent in rectangle and which sides correspond to the other rectangle.
