Answer:

x=7 and y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, you want to use elimination

1. multiply the second equation by -1

       5x + 3y = 41

       2x + 3y = 20

turns into

       5x + 3y = 41

       -2x + 3y = 20

2. combine the equations

       3x=21

3. solve for x

3x=21

3x/3=21/3

x=7

4. Now you want to plug x back into the original equation

5x+3y=41

turns into

5(7)+3y=41

5. Then solve for y

35+3y=41

35+3y-35=41-35

3y=6

3y/3=6/3

y=2

6. results

x=7 and y=2

<span><span>Corresponding angles are congruent (same measure)So in the figure above, the angle P=P',  Q=Q',  and R=R'.</span><span>Corresponding sides are all in the same proportionAbove, PQ is twice the length of P'Q'. Therefore, the other pairs of sides are also in that proportion. PR is twice P'R' and RQ is twice R'Q'.  
so the value of x :
x / 110 = 21.6 / 72
solve for x
x = 33</span></span>
