So what I think you do is that yu have to simplify or divide. Good luck! - from: a 7th grader
Step-by-step explanation:
7/x=12/14=6/7
x=49/6=8.167
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
→ First find the value of x and y
x + y = 5
x - y = 4
→ Add the equations to cancel out the y's
2x = 9
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of x
x = 4.5
→ Substitute x = 4.5 back into x - y = 4 to find the value of y
4.5 - y = 4
→ Minus 4.5 from both sides to isolate -y
-y = -0.5
→ Multiply everything by -1
y = 0.5
→ Substitute x = 4.5 and y = 0.5 into x² - y²
4.5² - 0.5² = 20.25 - 0.25 = 20
Y = 3 because in a rectangle, the diagonals are ALWAYS congruent. so you would have:
5y - 2 = 4y + 1
-4y+2 -4y + 2
y = 3
