Detailed Solution

The values of x and y in the following rectangle are 1 and 4 respectively.
Given rectangle is,
Question ImageWe know that, in rectangle opposite sides are parallel and equal to each other. Then from figure,
x+3y=13        … (1)
3x+y=7          … (2)
From equation (2),
y=7-3x            … (3)
Putting the value of y in equation (1) we get,
x+3y=13                                                 x+3(7-3x)=13
x+21-9x=13
21-13=9x-x
8=8x
x=88
x=1
Now, putting the value of y in equation (3),
y=73x y=73(1) y=73 y=4  
Hence, the values of x and y are 1 and 4 respectively.
