First, let's cancel out the x by multiplying 2x + 18y = -9 by -2.
-2 ( 2x + 18y = -9) = -4x -36y = 18
Then, we combine the two equations.
-4x + 4x = 0
18y - 36y = -18y
-27 + 18 = -9
Our new equation is -18y = -9.
Now, divide both sides by -18.
-18y / -18 = y
-9/ -18 = 1/2
y = 1/2
We can plug in a value for y since y = 1/2 now.
Let's use 2x + 18y = -9
Plug in y.
2x + 18(1/2) = -9
2x + 9 = -9
Then, subtract 9 from both sides.
2x = -18
Divide by 2.
2x/2 = x
-18/2 = -9
x = -9
Lastly, we can plug in both x and y values to see it works.
2(-9) + 18(1/2) = -9
-18 + 9 = -9
Therefore, the values of x and y does work.
x = -9
y = 1/2

value of x= 4 and value of y =1.
Answer:
15 cm, 15 cm, 11 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
let the equal sides be x then the third side is x - 4
The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides and is 41 cm , then
x + x + x - 4 = 41
3x - 4 = 41 ( add 4 to both sides )
3x = 45 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 15
x - 4 = 15 - 4 = 11
The sides are 15 cm, 15 cm, 11 cm
