- Problem 5) x = 4
- Problem 6) y = 8
- Problem 7) z = 4
=======================================================
Explanations:
Problem 5)
Assuming HEFG is a parallelogram, this means the opposite sides are the same length.
EH = GF
x-3 = 4x-15
x-4x = -15+3
-3x = -12
x = -12/(-3)
x = 4
--------------------------
Problem 6)
We'll use the same idea from problem 5. The opposite sides EF and HG are congruent
EF = HG
3y = 3x+12
3y = 3*4+12
3y = 24
y = 24/3
y = 8
--------------------------
Problem 7)
For any parallelogram, the diagonals always cut each other in half.
Therefore HK = 2z+3 is exactly half that of segment HF = 22
Put another way, HF is twice as long as HK
2*(HK) = HF
2*(2z+3) = 22
4z+6 = 22
4z = 22-6
4z = 16
z = 16/4
z = 4
your answer is going to be numbers 3
Answer: (-2,5)
Step 1: Rewrite equations
-3x+2y=16
x-2y=-12
Step 2: Changing the second equation
With substitution, you have to already have the equation to solve for the specific variable (ex: x=y+1;y=x+1). Since the equation doesn’t give us one, we can flip the second equation to give us this.
Let’s add 2y on both sides.
x-2y=-12
+2y +2y
_________
x=2y-12
Now we have the equation to solve for x!
Step 3: Substituting
Now we need to substitute x into the first equation. Let’s do this now.
-3(2y-12)+2y=16
Step 4: Solving for y
-3(2y-12)+2y=16
*distribute*
-6y+36+2y=16
*combine like terms*
-4y+36=16
*subtract 36 on both sides*
-4y=-20
*divide both numbers by -4*
y=5
This is y! Now we need to solve for x.
Step 5: Solving for x
To find x, let’s just substitute y into the equation and solve
x=2y-12
x=2(5)-12
x=10-12
x=-2
Step 6: Ordered pair
(X,y) —> (-2,5)

Answer:
∠ B = 108°
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ A and ∠ B are Alternate exterior angles and congruent, thus
6x + 18 = x + 93 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x + 18 = 93 ( subtract 18 from both sides )
5x = 75 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 15
Thus
∠ B = x + 93 = 15 + 93 = 108°
