Adding the equations to eliminate p would be the correct step because when you add the equations together, the variable p would cancel out and be eliminated leaving you with 2w=35 you can then solve for the value of w which you can then input to find the value of p, allowing you to solve for the values of both p and w.
Using similar triangles, the proportionality ratio of △QRS to △KJI is of 1/3.
<h3>What are similar triangles?</h3>
Similar triangles are triangles that have the same angles, and whose side lengths are proportional.
For this problem, we have that:
- The sides that have length of 2 on △QRS have lengths of 6 on △KJI.
- The side that has a length of 1 on △QRS has length of 3 on △KJI.
Hence the proportionality ratio of △QRS to △KJI is given as follows:
2/6 = 1/3.

Answer:
-9 is your answer for b.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Also note the rule that if you have a positive sign & a negative sign next to each other, the resulting sign would be negative:
b + (-17) = -26
b - 17 = -26
Isolate the variable (b). Add 17 to both sides:
b - 17 (+17) = -26 (+17)
b = -26 + 17
Simplify:
b = -26 + 17
b = -9
-9 is your answer for b.

Remember the rules:
Addition sign + Positive number = Add (Ex: 7 + 7 = 14)
Addition sign + Negative number = Subtract (Ex: 7 + (-7) = 7 - 7 = 0)
Subtraction sign + Positive number = Subtract (Ex: -3 + 4 = 4 - 3 = 1)
Subtraction sign + Subtraction sign = Add (Ex: 5 - (-5) = 5 + 5 = 10)
