Answer:
a = 17, b = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides GF and GH are congruent, so we have ...
GF = GH
30 = 2a -4 . . . . substitute given values
15 = a -2 . . . . . divide by 2
17 = a . . . . . . . . add 2
Sides FJ and HJ are congruent, so we have ...
FJ = HJ
3b +6 = 24 . . . . substitute given values
b +2 = 8 . . . . . . divide by 3
b = 6 . . . . . . . . . subtract 2
The values of a and b are (a, b) = (17, 6).
Solve by substitution. We begin by manipulating the second equation (solving for y).
2x+3y=13
4x-y=-2 => -y=-4x-2 => y=4x+2
Now substitute "4x+2" for y into the first equation because y=4x+2.
2x+3y=13 becomes 2x+3(4x+2)=13
Now solve for x.
2x+3(4x+2)=13
2x+12x+6=13
14x=7
x=1/2
Now we can solve for y because we know what x is.
y=4x+2 => y=4(1/2)+2 = y=4
answer: x=1/2, y=4, intersection point (1/2,4)
