Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the first equation. Subtract 3x from both sides.
y−3x=−2
Consider the second equation. Subtract x from both sides.
y−2−x=0
Add 2 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
y−x=2
To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.
y−3x=−2,y−x=2
Choose one of the equations and solve it for y by isolating y on the left hand side of the equal sign.
y−3x=−2
Add 3x to both sides of the equation.
y=3x−2
Substitute 3x−2 for y in the other equation, y−x=2.
3x−2−x=2
Add 3x to −x.
2x−2=2
Add 2 to both sides of the equation.
2x=4
Divide both sides by 2.
x=2
Substitute 2 for x in y=3x−2. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for y directly.
y=3×2−2
Multiply 3 times 2.
y=6−2
Add −2 to 6.
y=4
The system is now solved.
y=4,x=2
It might either be a right triangle or a cute triangle

Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, thus
MP = LN , substitute values
9x - 9 = 7x + 9 ( subtract 7x from both sides )
2x - 9 = 9 ( add 9 to both sides )
2x = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 9
LN = 7x + 9 = (7 × 9) + 9 = 63 + 9 = 72
MP = 9x - 9 = (9 × 9) - 9 = 81 - 9 = 72
