Answer:

(2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, elimination would be the most efficient means of solving.

Simply, add the two equations, and you will be left with only one variable to solve for. (In this case y) You are then able to take your solution and plug it into an equation and solve for x, therefore giving you their intercept.\

5x + 10y = 30

-5x + 15y = 20

(x's cancel) 25y = 50

25y = 50

y = 2

5x + 10(2) = 30

5x + 20 = 30

5x = 10

x = 2

The solution to this equation is (2, 2)

Answer: isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

By the alternate interior angles theorem, $\angle CAB=50^{\circ}$

Since angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees, $\angle ACB=180^{\circ}-80^{\circ}-50^{\circ}=50^{\circ}$

Since sides opposite equal angles in a triangle are equal, $AB=BC$ .

So, triangle ABC is <u>isosceles</u>
