Circles M and K are congruent, QR=LN and OP=VW. find y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

#7

OpenStudy (raden):

2x = y + 12 3x = 19 + y eliminate the x, then solve for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-y=12 -y=19?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2-y=12 3-y=19?

OpenStudy (raden):

hmmm... as the alternative way 2x = y + 12 3x = 19 + y ------------ (-) what would happen if the 1st equ subtracted with the 2nd equ ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-X=-7?

OpenStudy (raden):

yes, so x = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=7!

OpenStudy (raden):

that's right now subtitute x=7 to one of the equation above

OpenStudy (raden):

let, we take the 1st equation : 2x = y + 12 put x = 7, then solve for y

OpenStudy (raden):

it means : 2x = y + 12 2 * 7 = y + 12 14 = y + 12 now solve for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=2!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

perfect thanks again

OpenStudy (raden):

that's right welcome :)
