In kite ABCD, AB = BC and CD = DA. AB = (3x + 4), BC = x + 8, CD = y + 7, and DA = 2y + 5, find the perimeter of the kite

lana [24]

3x + 4 = x+ 8 > 3x - x = 2x > 2x + 4 = 8 > 8 - 4 = 4 > 2x / 2 crosses out > 4 / 2 = 2 > x=2
2y + 5 = y + 7 > 2y - y = y > y+ 5 = 7 > 7-5= 2 > y=2

the perimeter of the kite is 4

Solve the following system of equations by substitution

den301095 [7]

Answer:

c. (2, -18)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -5x - 8

y = 3x - 24

3x - 24 = -5x - 8

8x = 16

x = 2

y = 3x - 24

y = 3(2) - 24

y = 6 - 24

y = -18

Answer: c. (2, -18)
