56,105.61 is the answer rounded to the nearest hundred
The sum of the real numbers x and y is 11. Their difference is 5. what is the value of xy? Y=3
Similarities
Adding or subtracting a number from both sides.
Multiplying or dividing both sides by a positive number.
Applying an increasing function to both sides.
Simplifying one or both sides.
Differences
Multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number changes the direction of an inequality. So we cannot multiply or divide both sides by a variable unless we know that the variable is either always positive or always negative. This is not a concern when solving equalities.
When applying a decreasing function to both sides of an inequality, the direction of the inequality changes.
Swapping both sides of an inequality also changes the direction of an inequality. Again we don't have to worry about this with equalities.
Answer:
x = 6
y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
since DE and JK are congruent, they are both 18
to find 'y':
3y - 21 = 18
3y = 39
y = 13
DF and JL are diagonals that are congruent so:
9x - 23 = 7x - 11
2x = 12
x = 6
