Answer:

x = 14

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

*Property*

In a parallelogram:

Opposite sides are equal.

Since, the given figure is a parallelogram we can apply this property and equate:

1) 2y + 1 = 13
2) x = y + 8

1) 2y + 1 = 13

subtracting 1 from both sides:

=> 2y + 1 - 1 = 13 - 1

=> 2y = 12

dividing both sides by 2:

=> 2y/ 2 = 12/ 2

On the LHS, 2 gets canceled because it's available in the numerator as well as the denominator

On the RHS, 2 gets canceled when 12 is factorised to 6 × 2:

2) x = y + 8

We've got the value of y from equation 1).

Substituting it here:

=> x = 6 + 8

Answer:

Hence, we got the values of x and y as:

$\mathsf{x = 14 }\\ \mathsf{ y = 6}$

What is the simplest way to explain scale drawings for middle school math?

Allushta [10]

Answer:

The simplest way to teach middle school math scale drawings is to use real pictures to relate to each other to explain the concept. For example, scaling a red ball of 1" to a ball of 2" and so on. This will show how the ball increases by size by adding 1" each time.

The cost of a video game can be modeled by the question C=5x-2. The number of games sold can be modeled by the equation N=8x+5.

5x - 2 = 8x + 5.
-2 = -5x + 8x + 5
-2 = 3x +5
-7 = 3x

-7/3 = -2.3
