Answer:
x=16, y=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
-1(x-y=12)
x+7y=-20
-x+y=-12
x+7y=-20
8y=-32
y=-4
x-4=12
x=16
Answer: 64
Step-by-step explanation:
If EFGH is a parallelogram, its diagonals bisect each other meaning EJ and JG are congruent.
EJ = JG
4w + 4 = 2w + 18
Subtract 2w from both sides
2w + 4 = 18
Subtract 4 from both sides
2w = 14
Divide both sides by 2
w = 7
EG = EJ + JG
EG = 4w + 4 + 2w + 18
EG = 6w + 22
Now that we know what 'w' is, we can substitute it for 7
EG = 6 (7) + 22
EG = 42 + 22 = 64
The measure of EG is 64.

Instead of adding more fraction strips you would take some away to get a smaller number.
2(3x + 5) (x - 1)
This is done through factoring 2 out of the equation first...
2(3x^2 + 2x -5)
And then cross multiplying it
