DC/AC=EC/BC
x/(x+3)=10/16
10(x+3)=16x
10x+30=16x
30=6x
x=5
DC=x=5
DC=5 units long

10/16=DE/AB,     DE=y

10/16=y/10
16*y=10*10
y=6.25≈6.3
DE≈6.3

bezimeni [28]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
 We have then:
 x: number of pens
 y: number of pencils
 We now write the system of inequations:
 x + y  \leq  25&#10;&#10;y  \geq  (x - 3) ^ 2&#10;
 The solution to the system of inequations is given by the shaded region.
 Note: see attached image.
