Question

GEO!

Answer 1

I have to find X and Y

Answer 2

@rational Can i have help please haha

Answer 3

diagonals bisect each other :

AP = CP

BP = DP

Answer 4

setup two equations based on that and solve x, y

Answer 5

3x = x +y and y = 6x - 40

Answer 6

Yes.
solve x,y

Answer 7

would i subtract 1x from both sides and i have no idea for the 2d one

Answer 8

we have two equations :

```
3x = x +y
y = 6x - 40
```


substitute the value of y from second equation into first equation :

3x = x + 6x - 40

solve x first

Answer 9

subtract 1x from 6x?

Answer 10

3x = x + 6x - 40

On right hand side, combine like terms x and 6x :
3x = 7x - 40

Answer 11

subtract 7 from both sides then/

Answer 12

do you mean "subtract 7x" ?

Answer 13

yeah

Answer 14

looks good

Answer 15

so then -4x = 40

Answer 16

-4x = -40

Answer 17

then divided -4

Answer 18

x = 10?

Answer 19

Yes!

Answer 20

see if you can find "y" using that

Answer 21

hmmm

Answer 22

3x = 10 + y?

Answer 23

3*10 = 10 + y

Answer 24

30 = 10 = y subtract the 10 from both sides?

Answer 25

30 = 10 + y

Answer 26

thats what i meant haha

Answer 27

then subtract 10/

Answer 28

Yep

Answer 29

y = 20

Answer 30

now I have to find a and b
