Answer: B) 4 & 1/6
Nice work on getting the correct answer.
============================================================
Explanation:
x is opposite the marked acute angle
5 is opposite the corresponding acute angle
So x and 5 are proportional to each other. We can form the ratio x/5
Similarly, 10 and 12 are proportional to one another. We can form the ratio 10/12.
Set those ratios equal to each other and solve for x
x/5 = 10/12
12x = 5*10 ... cross multiply
12x = 50
x = 50/12 ...... divide both sides by 12
x = (25*2)/(6*2)
x = 25/6
x = (24+1)/6
x = 24/6 + 1/6
x = 4 + 1/6
x = 4 & 1/6 which shows why <u>choice B</u> is the answer.
Side note: 25/6 = 4.167 approximately

Answer:
A) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to get this but this is how I did it:
1. Multiply the second equation by 1/4 to get the same fraction for y as the one in the first equation
1/4 x + 1/8 y = 2
1/4 (1/3 x + 1/2 y = 4)
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
2. Subtract the first equation from the new equation
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
<u> - 1/4 x - 1/8 y = -2</u>
-1/6 x= -1
3. Divide both sides by -1/6
<u>-1/6</u> x= <u>-1</u>
-1/6 -1/6
x = 6
4. Substitute 4 in for x in the original equation:
1/4 (6) + 1/8y = 2
6/4 + 1/8y = 2
1/8y = 1/2
y = 4
