Answer:

x = 7, y = 6

(7,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y =20

6x - 5y = 12

2x + y = 20

-2x     -2x

y = -2x + 20

6x - 5y = 12

6x - 5(-2x + 20) = 12

6x + 10x - 100 = 12

16x - 100 = 12

     + 100  +100

16x = 112

/16    /16

x = 7

Now, we solve for y:

2x + y = 20

2(7) + y = 20

14 + y = 20

-14      -14

y = 6

(x, y) -> (7,6)

Hope this helps!

1.

2x + y = 20 (multiply this equation by 5 in order to get rid of y by addition of both equations)

6x - 5y = 12

2.

10x + 5y = 100

6x - 5y = 12

(add both equations to get the below equation)

16x = 112

3. Do simple math:

x = 112/16

x = 7

4. plug in the x (7) into the first equation

2x + y =20

2*7 + y = 20

14 + y = 20

y = 6

(x, y)

answer: (7,6)

Some one help me on this one
aleksandrvk [35]
The answer is III only, or D. 


We can start to solve this by knowing what the HL theorem means. The HL theorem, like its name implies, shows says that if a hypotenuse and leg of a triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and leg of a different triangle, then the triangles are congruent. The only triangle that we see a hypotenuse congruent in is in figure III. In figure II, those congruent sides are both legs while in figure I we just see 2 congruent angles. Now in figure III, we can also see that two legs are congruent because of the reflexive property. That means that the answer is III, or D.

The length and
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

42 yards

Step-by-step explanation

There are 4 sides to a rectangle. 2 lengths, and 2 widths. That means that you multiply both values by 2 and then add them together, so 40 + 2. A more basic way to think of it is 20+20+1+1. Therefore, the perimeter is 41 yards.
