x - y = 35
x = 6y
Plug 6y in for x in the first equation.
6y - y = 35
5y = 35
Divide both sides by 5
y = 7
x = 6y
x = 6(7) = 42
42 and 7
Letter C
Since we had the answers we could have just tried the answers but you will not always have multiple choice so this is the method for solving.
What you want to do with this equation is make a triangle connecting the two points you have and count the distance (rise/run) for this you would get 6/1 !
The correct answer to this problem is
C=3
Y=3
Similar Polygons
Similar polygons are polygons whose corresponding angles are congruent and their corresponding sides are proportional. In other words, Polygons that have the same shape but not necessarily the same size are called similar polygons.
