Delete as this is the wrong answer. Made a typo in the answer.

Answer:

x = \frac{-212}{3}

y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x - 8y = 20  .... (1)

-5x + y = 19   .... (2)

What we can do is take the (2) equation

-5x + y = 19

and solve for y by adding 5x to both sides

y = 24

now that we have y we substitute it in for y in equation (1)

-3x - 8(24) = 20

-3x - 192 = 20

we want to solve for x so we need to get its self.

add 192 to both sides

-3x = 212

now we divide both sides by -3. It's going to be a fraction.

x = \frac{-212}{3}

Answer:

x=-4

y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x-8y=20

-5x+y=19

rewrite for y:

y=19+5x

substitute y

-3x-8(19+5x)=20

-3x-152-40x=20

-3x-152-40x+152=20+152

-43x=172

-43x/-43=172/-43

x=-4

substitute x

-5(-4)+y=19

20+y=19

y=-1

check:

-3(-4)-8(-1)=20

12+8=20

-5(-4)+-1=19

20-1=19

Graph the system by using technology. What is the y-coordinate of the solution?
son4ous [18]
Take second equation here, 
2x + 9 = -12
2x = -12 - 9
2x = -21
Multiply by 2, 
4x = -42

Now, substitute the vaue of 4x in 1st equation, 
-42 - y = 2
-y = 2 + 42
y = -44

In short, Your Answer would be -44

Hope this helps!

In the diagram, BC¯¯¯¯¯∥DE¯¯¯¯¯ .<br><br> What is AE ?
emmainna [20.7K]
So there are two triangles here: Smaller one (ADE) and bigger one (ABC) and they both are similar.

So you can use proportions here.

AB / AC = AD / AE

AB = AD + DB = 6 + 1 = 7
AC = AE + 3

AD = 6

So plug in these values:

AB / AC = AD / AE becomes
7 / (AE + 3) = 6 / AE

Now do the cross multiply:

7 AE = 6 (AE + 3)

Now solve for AE:

7AE = 6AE + 18

AE = 18
