Answer:

  (x, y) = (5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  LP = x

  MP = 2y+3

  NP = y+3

  KP = 3x -8

  KP = MP, LP = NP

<u>Find</u>:

  x, y

<u>Solution</u>:

The given relations between the segment lengths let us write two equations:

  KP = MP

  3x -8 = 2y +3   ⇒   3x -2y -11 = 0   [eq1]

  LP = NP

  x = y +3   ⇒   x -y -3 = 0   [eq2]

__

Subtracting 3 times [eq2] from [eq1] gives ...

  (3x -2y -11) -3(x -y -3) = 0

  y -2 = 0 . . . . . . . . simplify

  y = 2 . . . . . . . . . . add 2

Substituting this value into [eq2] gives ...

  x = 2 + 3 = 5

The values of x and y are ...

  x = 5, y = 2

How many total ounces of chicken
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

An average chicken breast weighs 174 g, or about 6 ounces (oz). But sizes vary from smaller cuts at around 4 oz, to larger ones at 8 to 10 oz. There's no right or wrong choice here. It really depends on what you're cooking and how much chicken you want.

What is the<br> area of the rhombus?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Area=36

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rhombus: diagonal 1 x diagonal 2 divided by 2.

To find the area of a rhombus, you need to find the length of both diagonals(which is the distance between 2 points across from each other).

First, find the distance between -8 and 4 which is 12.

Next, find the distance between -1 and -7 which is 6.

12 x 6 =72

72/2=36
