Triangles IJK and LMN are similar. Then, the proportion between their similar sides must be equal. That is:

IJ/ML = JK/MN = IK/LN

where:

IJ = x

JK = 54

IK = y

MN = 42

ML = 28

NL = 35

In order to find the value of y, you consider the equation JK/MN = IK/LN, and solve for y, just as follow

JK/MN = IK/LN replace by the values

54/42 = y/35 multiply both sides by 35

(54/42)(35) = y

45 = y

Hence, y = 45

Someone please help me with this!!
Paraphin [41]

PEMDAS tells us to use multiplication and division before addition and subtraction.

<u>-5(8) </u>÷ 10 - <u>14 ÷ 7</u> - <u>(-2)(3)</u>

<u> -40  ÷ 10</u> -     2    -   -6

     <u>-4       -    2 </u>     + 6    <em>two negatives make a positive so - - 6  = + 6</em>

           <u> -6              +6</u>

                      0
