Answer:

Animal books make up (3/20) of all books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the total number of books, made up of nonfiction, animal, and all others.

(3/5)X are nonfiction books.

Of the nonfiction books, 1/4 are animal books:  (3/5)*(1/4)X = (3/20)X are animal books

[This means that Nonfiction, less animal books is:  (3/5)X - (3/20)X]

Animal books make up (3/20) of all books.

PLS HELP!!<br><br> What values of u and v make triangle XYZ = Triangle GFH
Katarina [22]

Answers:

u = 18

v = 20

========================================================

Work Shown:

The leg YZ is congruent to the left FH

This means YZ = FH and that leads to u+v-18 = 10u-8v

The hypotenuse ZX is congruent to the hypotenuse HG

This means ZX = HG and we get the equation 14v-14u+32 = v+u+22

----------------------

The system of equations we have so far is

u+v-18 = 10u-8v

14v-14u+32 = v+u+22

Let's get the equations into standard form

Start with the first equation

u+v-18 = 10u-8v

u+v = 10u-8v+18

u+v-10u+8v = 18

-9u+9v = 18

-9(u-v) = 18

u-v = 18/(-9)

u-v = -2

Note how we can solve for the variable u to get

u = v-2

which we'll use later

----------------------

Let's get the other equation into standard form as well

14v-14u+32 = v+u+22

14v-14u-v-u = 22-32

-15u+13v = -10

Now plug in u = v-2 and solve for v

-15u+13v = -10

-15(v-2) + 13v = -10

-15v+30+13v = -10

-2v+30 = -10

-2v = -10-30

-2v = -40

v = -40/(-2)

v = 20

Which means,

u = v-2

u = 20-2

u = 18
