X=numerator
y=denominator
the sum of numerator and denominator=x+y
we suggest this system of equations:

y=x-3
(x+5) / (y+5)=5/6

we solve this system of equation by substitution method.
(x+5) / (x-3+5)=5/6
(x+5) / (x+2)=5/6
6(x+5)=5(x+2)
6x+30=5x+10
6x-5x=10-30
x=-20

y=x-3=-20-3=-23

Teh sum of the numerator an denominator=-20+(-23)=-43

Answer:    -43

Instructions: Find the surface area of the figure below. Round your answers to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
Y_Kistochka [10]

The surface area of the figure given is of: 61.3 yd².

<h3>What is the combined surface area of a figure?</h3>

The combined surface area of a figure is the area of each figure.

This figure is composed by:

  • A circle of radius 3 yd.
  • A triangle with base 6 yd and one leg 11.4 yd.

The area of the circle is given as follows:

A = \pi r^2 = \pi \times 3^2 = 9\pi

For the triangle, we need to find it's height, which is the <u>leg of a right triangle, in which one of the sides is 3 and the hypotenuse is 11.4</u>, hence:

h² + 3² = 11.4²

h = \sqrt{11.4^2 - 3^2}

h = 11 yd.

Hence the area of the triangle is:

A = 0.5 x 6 x 11 = 33 yd²

The surface area of the figure is:

9pi + 33 yd² = 61.3 yd².
