Your balloon willland right at the edge of the lake below, but it appears thatyour friends will be pretty far away. You can see a reflectionof their balloon right in the middle (direct center) of the 1200 ft wide lake below.How far away from the lake will your friends touch down?

I need help please my home work not to sure how to do it
Artyom0805 [142]
1.   x+5y=8
    2x- 5y=1     What you do is find the number/variable that are the same( here is is the +5y and -5y. You want them to be opposites(-,+) so that they cancel each other out. if they are not opposites, then multiply one equation by a negative sign to change it. Cross out the 5y's. Now you can combine like terms-x+2x=3x, and 8+1=9, so now your equation will look like this:
3x=9
x=9/3
x=3
now take x=3 and plug it into the first equation to solve for y. x+5y=8, so 3+5y=8
5y=8-3
5y=5
y=5/5
y=1
(3,1) are your answers.
now do the same with the other problems.
