Answer:

<em>x = 12 and y = 16</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following lengths;

NO = x + 2y,

MO = 3x,

PQ = 6x + 4, and

OQ = 2y + 4.

The following postulates are true;

MN = PQ

Since MO + ON = MN

MN = 3x + x+2y

MN = 4x + 2y

Recall that PQ = 6x+4

Equating both expressions;

4x + 2y=  6x+4

Collect like terms;

4x-6x + 2y = 4

-2x + 2y = 4

x - y = -4 ...... 1

Also MO = OQ

3x =  2y + 4

3x-2y= 4 ....2

from 1; x = -4 + y

Substitute into 2:

3x-2y= 4

3(-4+y)-2y = 4

-12+3y-2y = 4

-12+y = 4

y = 4 + 12

y = 16

Since x = -4+y

x = -4 + 16

x = 12

<em>Hence x = 12 and y = 16</em>

Is x^2-1 a polynomial
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Yes it's a binomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is an expression with more than one term that often has variables and exponents on the variable. Since this has two terms separated by a subtraction sign with one term being a variable to the exponent of 2 then this is a polynomial. It is called a binomial. More than 2 terms are referred exclusively as a polynomial with ___ terms.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

uhhh... why dont you check my work lol

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -15/18x + b

-1 = -15/18 (6) + b

-1 = 5 + b

-6 = b

check your work:

14 = -15/18(-12) - 6

14 = 10 - 6

14 = 4
