Question

Please help asap! Solve for x and y

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3

Since side KN is the same as Side LM we can make an equation

2x + 1 = 4x - 7

x=3

Then it says (7y+3)° is a right angle, or more known as 90°

our equation is 7y+3=90

y=12 and 3/7

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You are working with a square. All 4 sides are equal

2x+ 1 = 4x - 7         Subtract 2x from both sides

1 = 4x - 2x - 7         Combine

1 = 2x - 7                Add 7 to both sides

1 + 7 = 2x               Combine

2x = 8                    Divide by 2

2x/2 =8/2

x = 4

The diagonals of a square bisect the 90 degree angle.

7y + 3 = 45           Subtract 3 from both sides

7y = 45 - 3            Combine

7y = 42                 Divide by 7

y = 42/7

y = 6
