Answer:

    B.\cfrac{1}{2}

<h3>Given equation</h3>

  • \cfrac{12y-1}{2} =\cfrac{9y+8}{5}

<h3>Solve it for y</h3>

1. Cross - multiply:

  • 5(12y-1)=2(9y+8)

2. Open parenthesis:

  • 60y-5=18y+16

3. Collect like terms:

  • 60y-18y=16+5

4. Simplify:

  • 42y=21

5. Divide both sides by 42:

  • y=21/42=1/2

Matching answer choice is B

Answer:

a) Similar triangles are triangles with the same shape but not necessarily the same size

b) 15/45 = 8/x

1/3 = 8/x (simplify the 15/45)

x = 8 * 3 (cross multiplication)

x = 24

c) y^2 = 15^2 + 8^2 (Pythagoras theorem)

y = *square root of* 15^2 + 8^2

y = 17

1/3 = 17/z

z = 17 * 3 (cross multiplication)

z = 51
