Answer:
x=5 and y=7
Explanation:
The opposite parallel sides of any rhombus are going to be equal.
a.) Knowing this you take (x+14) and make it equal to (5x-2). Then you subtract the x from (x+14), and add the 2 from (5x+2), making the new equation 16=4x. You divide 4 by x and by 16, getting the final simplified answer of x=4.
b.) Using the same method you take 3y-3 and set it equal to (2y+4). Then you subtract the 2y from (2y+4) and add the 3 from (3y-3) to bother sides. Now you have your new equation and answer being y=7.
a.) x+14 = 5x-2
b.) 3y-3 = 2y+4
