Solve the system using elimination,
2x - 3y = - 19
7x + 7y = 21

x = -2

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3y = -19  (I)

7x+ 7y = 21  (II)

Multiply equation (I) by 7 and equation (II) by 3.Then add and so y will be eliminated and you will get the value of x

(I)*7              14x - 21y = - 133

(II)* 3           21x + 21y = 63          {Now add}

                   35x          = -70

                                x = -70/35

x = - 2

Plug in x = - 2 in equation (I)

2*(-2) - 3y = -19

-4 -  3y  = -19

     -3y = -19 + 4

     -3y = -15

         y = -15/-3

y = 5

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
