The sum of two numbers is 71, and the difference of the numbers is 37. The system of linear equations shown below represents this situation, where x is the greater of the numbers and y is the smaller number. Solve the system to find the two numbers. x + y = 71
x − y = 37
The larger number is the smaller number is.

Larger number x=54

y=17

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=71

x-y=37 then x=y+37

substitute x

y+37+y=71

2y=34

y=17

x=y+37=54

i dont know

step-by-step explanation:

false

step-by-step explanation:

false.   two legs of the trapezoid would be congruent, but the other two would not.   were all the legs congruent, then we'd have a square; were the 2 shorter sides congruent and the 2 longer sides also congruent, we'd have a rectangle.
