To solve for x and y, you need to know if the triangles are congruent. They are because of their congruent sides and exterior angles are the same measure.
Now you know that the triangles are congruent, you can set up a proportion for the side lengths you are looking for.
For x...
22/10=x/12. Then cross mutiply. x =26.4
You can do this because the triangles are congruent.
For y...
22/10 =37.4/y. Then you cross multiply. y=17
The correct answer is B.
So let's say he was earring x before his raise. That means that:
x times 1.09 = 654 (1.09 represents 100% (this is the 1.0) of his original salary plus 9% (this is the .09) his raise.
So,
1.09x = 654; now divide both sides by 1.09 to isolate and solve for x, and you get x = $600.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the square root of 5, which is 2.236, aka not a rational number. It doesn't come out to a whole number so therefore there is no rational solution
