$x\ \textless \ y\\\\
y-x=52\\
\dfrac{y}{4}+2x=85\\\\
y=52+x\\
y+8x=340\\\\52+x+8x=340\\
9x=288\\
x=32\\\\
y-32=52\\
y=84$

Triangle XYZ was dilated by a scale factor of 2 to create triangle ACB and sin ∠X = 5 over 5 and 59 hundredths.

Vikentia [17]

The relationship between Traingle XYZ and ACB is that they are similar triangles. tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths, where

AC = 2 x XY
CB = 2 x YZ

<h3>What is the dilation about?</h3>

Triangle XYZ was dilated by a scale factor of 2 to create triangle ACB, hence XYZ and ACB are similar triangles.

Angles Y and C are said to measure 90 degrees, and angles A and X are known to be congruent. Thus:

tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths

AC = 2 x XY

CB = 2 x YZ

Another way to solve for it is by:

Note that Dilation of the triangle ΔXYZ was by a factor of "2".

Since m∠Y = m∠C = 90º - given

ΔXYZ and ΔACB are said to be right triangles.

Since ∠X ≅ ∠A - given

Then ∠X and ∠Z are said to becomplementary angles

Since m∠Z = 90° - m∠X -- given

Then ∠A and ∠B are said to be complementary angles

Since m∠B = 90° - m∠A --- given

Then, ∠Z ≅ ∠B

Therefore ΔXYZ ∼ ΔACB are similar triangles because it has its corresponding sides to be proportional and its corresponding angles to be congruent.

Note:

sin ∠X = 5/5.59

sin ∠X = YZ/XY

YZ = 5 seen in ΔXYZ

XZ = 5.59 seen in hypotenuse of ΔXYZ

Then one need to Calculate the length of one aspect of XY:

XY = √((5.59)2 - 52)

= 2.4996

Note CB/YZ = 2

CD = 2*YZ = 2 x 5

= 10

AC/XY = 2

AC = 2* XY

= 2 x 2.4996

= 4.999

Question 24 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)

hammer [34]

Given:

The system of equations is:

Line A: $y=x-4$

Line B: $y=3x+4$

To find:

The solution of given system of equations.

Solution:

We have,

$y=x-4$ ...(i)

$y=3x+4$ ...(ii)

Equating (i) and (ii), we get

$x-4=3x+4$

$-4-4=3x-x$

$-8=2x$

Divide both sides by 2.

$-4=x$

Substituting $x=-4$ in (i), we get

$y=-4-4$

$y=-8$

The solution of system of equations is (-4,-8).

Now verify the solution by substituting $x=-4, y=-8$ in the given equations.

$-8=-4-4$

$-8=-8$

This statement is true.

Similarly,

$-8=3(-4)+4$

$-8=-12+4$

$-8=-8$

This statement is also true.

Therefore, (-4,-8) is a solution of the given system of equations, because the point satisfies both equations. Hence, the correct option is C.
