Question 1014202
.
In parallelogram ABCD, AB=7x+y, BC=15, CD=x+28 and AD=x+y. Find x and y.
------------------------------------------------------------------------


<pre>
AB = CD  --->  7x + y = x + 28. 
BC = AD  --->  15 = x + y.   

So, you have this system of two equations for x and y:

7x + y = x + 28. 
15 = x + y.      

Simplify:

6x + y = 28,   (1)
 x + y = 15.   (2)

To solve it, distract the equation (2) from (1). You will get

5x = 28-15 = 13,

x = {{{13/5}}}.

From this point please complete the solution youself.
