Solve the system using elimination.
14y - 8x = 44
-7y = -x - 16

The solution is x = -2 and y = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

14y - 8x = 44      Eqn 1

-7y = -x - 16       Eqn 2

In elimination method, you try to eliminate one variable in the equation by adding or subtracting.

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 2

2(-7y = -x - 16)

-14y=-2x-32

-14y+2x= -32    Eqn 3

Adding Eqn 1 and 3

(14y-8x)+(-14y+2x)=44+(-32)

14y-8x-14y+2x=44-32

-6x=12

Dividing both sides by -6

Putting x=-2 in Eqn 2

-7y=-(-2)-16

-7y=2-16

-7y=-14

Dividing both sides by -7

Hence,

The solution is x = -2 and y = 2.

option: d is the correct answer.

d) none of the above.

step-by-step explanation:

clearly from the figure attached to the question we could see that there is no shape given. hence without any shape given in the figure and after rotation we can't obtained a square pyramid.

since, to obtain a image we need a proper figure of the pre-image so that it can be transformed.

hence, the correct answer is:

d) none of the above.
