Answer:
The answer to your question is
x = -2 and y = 10 or x = 10 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 8 (1) from (1) x = 8 - y
xy = - 20 (2)
Solve them by substitution
(8 - y) y = - 20
8y - y² = -20
y² - 8y - 20 = 0
( y - 10) (y + 2) = 0
y - 10 = 0 and y + 2 = 0
<u> y1 = 10 </u> <u>y2 = -2</u>
x1 = 8 - 10 x2 = 8 - -2
<u>x1 = -2</u> <u> x2 = 10</u>
The angles in the triangles are the same, so you know the triangles are similar. Sides PQ and AB correspond as do sides PR and AC. Because the triangles are similar, you know that
PR/AC = PQ/AB
PR/24 = 5/20
Multiplying this equation by 24 gives
PR = 24*(5/20) = 6
The appropriate choice is ...
