Question

The three rectancles shown besides have the same area. What is the value of x +y? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

can they be equal is the answer of this question

Answer 2

Answer:

x+y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+ 4) (y-3) = xy

xy-3x +4y -12 = xy

xy-xy+4y -3x = 12

4y - 3x = 12 (1)

(x+8)(y-4) = xy

xy-4x +8y -32 = xy

xy-xy -4x +8y = 32

4(-x +2y) = 32

2y-x = 8

x= 2y-8 (2)

putting x= 2y-8 in equation (1 ) we get

4y - 3(2y-8) = 12

4y - 6y +24 = 12

-2y =12-24

-2y = -12

y = -12/-2

y= 6

by putting y = 6 in equation (2) we get

x= (2×6) -8

x= 12-8

x= 4

so x+y = 6+4 = 10

hope, this will help you
