Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other into two equal segments. Therefore:
3x - 1 = 2(x + 1)
Solve for x
3x - 1 = 2x + 2
Collect like terms
3x - 2x = 1 + 2
x = 3
Also:
5y + 1 = 6y - 1
Collect like terms
5y - 6y = -1 - 1
-y = -2
Divide both sides by -1
y = -2/-1
y = 2
Answer:
A-3, B-4, C-1, D-2
Step-by-step explanation:
A:
- 5x-(3x+1)
- Expand, 5x-3x-1
- Combine like terms, 2x-1
B:
- 5x-(-3x-1)
- Expand, 5x+3x+1
- Combine like terms, 8x+1
C:
- -5x-(3x+1)
- Expand, -5x-3x-1
- Combine like terms, -8x-1
D:
- -5x-(-3x-1)
- Expand, -5x+3x+1
- Combine like terms, -2x+1

- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
x - 5y = -40
18x - 5y = 45
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
18x - 5y = 45
- Multiply both sides by -1: -18x + 5y = -45
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
x - 5y = -40
-18x + 5y = -45
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine equations: -17x = -85
- Divide -17 on both sides: x = 5
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define equation: x - 5y = -40
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5 - 5y = -40
- Isolate <em>y</em> term: -5y = -45
- Isolate <em>y</em>: y = 9
2. WXZ=YXZ
3. Reflexive property of equality
(if they are angles)-
4. WXZ=YXZ ~~Reason- Congruent angles have equal number of degrees
(if they are triangles-more likely judging by the problem)-
4. Triangle WXZ=YXZ ~ Reason- SAS Congruence Postulate
Answer:
I think this is the right answer but last two signs are incorrect
Hope this will help
