Answer:

(- 2, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

7x - 2y = - 20 → (1)

9x + 4y = - 6 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the term in y

14x - 4y = - 40 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate the term in y

23x = - 46 ( divide both sides by 23 )

x = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (2)

9(- 2) + 4y = - 6

- 18 + 4y = - 6 ( add 18 to both sides )

4y = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )

y = 3

Solution is (- 2, 3 )

Answer:

a) 16.25 centimeters

b) 6.8 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion for both of these problems.

a) Look at the longest side of each triangle. We can set up a fraction: 7.2/18. We can also set up a fraction for XZ and PR:

6.5/x

x represents the length you're trying to find.

Since the triangles are similar, we have an equation:

7.2/18=6.5/x

Cross multiply

16.25

XZ is 16.25 centimeters long.

b)

We can do same thing:

7.2/18=x/17

Cross multiply

6.8

QR is 6.8 centimeters long.

Hope this helps!

'The following graph shows the preimage, A.ABC . You can rotate A.ABC' clockwise to get 4.A' B'C" . Finally; you can translate A
Lyrx [107]

When you move a shape via rigid transformations, the dimensions of the shape do not change.

<h3>What is the congruent triangle?</h3>

Two triangles are said to be congruent if the length of the sides is equal, a measure of the angles are equal and they can be superimposed.

You can rotate A.ABC' clockwise to get 4.A' B'C" . Finally  you can translate A4' B'C"' down to become AA" B"C" 2019 StrongMind.

When two triangles are congruent to each other, each triangle has six parts (three angles and three sides) that are congruent to those six parts of the other triangle.

When you move a shape via rigid transformations, the dimensions of the shape do not change.

This includes translation and rotation. Since the size or measure of any of the side lengths or angles is not changing when you move the shape,

the only way that you can match one shape onto another with rigid transformations is if all of the corresponding sides and angles are congruent.
