Question

SOLVE THIS PROBLEM PLEASE 20 POINTS

Answer 1

x=5,y=0

Explanation:

KL=JM [Opposite sides of rectangle are equal]

3x-y=15-> eq 1

JK=LM

4x-4y=20

=>4(x-y)=20

=>x-y=5-> eq 2

From eq 1 and 2,

3x-y=15

x-y=5

=>2x=10

=>x=5

x-y=5

y=x-5

=>y=5-5

=>y=0

Answer 2

x=5

y=0

Explanation:

KL = JM

3x-y = 15

and JK = LM

4x -4y = 20

Divide this equation by 4

x-y= 5

Multiply by -1

-x+y =-5

Add this to the first equation

3x-y = 15

-x+y =-5

-----------------

2x = 10

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 10/2

x =5

x-y = 5

5-y = 5

-y = 0

y =0
