Answer:

x=-5, y=-8. (-5, -8).

Step-by-step explanation:

-x+2y=-11

5x-8y=39

---------------

5(-x+2y)=5(-11)

5x-8y=39

---------------------

-5x+10y=-55

5x-8y=39

--------------------

2y=-16

y=-16/2

y=-8

-x+2(-8)=-11

-x-16=-11

-x=-11+16

-x=5

x=-5

If A= (7,9) and B= (3,12) what is the length of AB?
MissTica
The length can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem...

c^2=a^2+b^2 and in this case:

d^2=(dx^2)+(dy^2)

d^2=(3-7)^2+(12-9)^2

d^2=-4^2+3^2

d^2=16+9

d^2=25

d=5 

So the length of AB=5 units.
