============================================
Δ AYW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WA² = AY² + YW²
And AY = YB ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WA² = YB² + YW² → (1)
Δ BYW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WB² = BY² + YW² → (2)
From (1) , (2) ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WA = WB →→ (3)
Δ CXW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WC² = CX² + XW²
And CX = XB ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WC² = XB² + XW² → (4)
Δ BXW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WB² = XB² + XW² → (5)
From (4) , (5) ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WC = WB →→ (6)
From (3) , (6)
WA = WB = WC
given ⇒⇒⇒ WA = 5x – 8 and WC = 3x + 2
∴ <span> 5x – 8 = 3x + 2</span>
Solve for x ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ x = 5
∴ WB = WA = WC = 3*5 + 2 = 17
The correct answer is option D. WB = 17

Answer:
y = 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Given y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is
y = ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 23 when x = 8 , then
23 = ( multiply both sides by 8 )
184 = k
y = ← equation of variation
When x = 4 , then
y = = 46
