The value of x in the first question is 3/7.
The value of y in the second question is 17/22
For the first equation given, the first step is to simplify the numbers in the numerator
5(1 - x) + 3(1 +x)
5 - 5x + 3 + 3x
2 - 2x
The equation becomes
Cross multiply
2 - 2x = 8(1 - 2x)
2 - 2x = 8 -16x
Combine similar terms
16x - 2x = 8 - 2
14x = 6
Divide both sides of the equation by 14
x = 6/14
x = 3/7
<em><u>The second question </u></em>
the first step is to simplify the terms in the numerator by combining similar terms
y - 4 + 3y
4y - 4
The second step is to simplify the terms in the denominator by combining similar terms
2y - 3 - 4y
-2y - 3
The equation becomes
=
Cross multiply
20y - 20 = -2y - 3
Combine similar terms
20y + 2y = 20 - 3
22y = 17
Divide both sides of the equation by y
y = 17/22

Answer:
Negative numbers go first, the greater the number, the smaller the number.
This could be a parallelogram, but it also could easily be an isosceles trapezoid. A trapezoid is a figure with only one pair of parallel sides. An isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid where the non-parallel sides are the same length. It's similar to an isosceles triangle.
Because this could be an isosceles trapezoid, this means we don't have enough information. See the attached image below for an example.
