Start by defining your variables
let x be the mass of a single mango in gm
let y be the mass of a single orange in gm
now, write the question as a system of equations
3 mango and 2 orange have a mass of 200 gm
3x +2y = 200
4 mango and 4 orange have a mass of 300 gm
4x +4y = 300
now you have a system of equations
3x+2y =200
4x+4y =300
solve for x and y

Answer:
y = 17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y is directly proportional to x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition y = 35 when x = 140, then
35 = 140k ( divide both sides by 140 )
0.25 = k
y = 0.25x ← equation of proportion
When x = 70, then
y = 0.25 × 70 = 17.5
M<J = m<N ( alternate angles)
m<K = m<M ( alternate angles)
so the third angles must also be equal ( total 180 degrees in each triangle)
Therefor the triangles are similar
