Answer:
x = 3, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
3x = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 3
and
=
( cross- multiply )
3y = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 2
200 divided by 300000 = 0.000666666666667
-15 is in fact less than -7. Here is a number line:
-15 -14 -13 -12 -11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5...

Answer:
2 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6 x-4 = -2
Add 4 to each side
5/6 x-4+4 = -2+4
5/6 x = 2
Multiply by 6/5 to isolate x
6/5 *5/6 x = 6/5 *2
x = 12/5
Changing this from an improper fraction
5 goes into 12 2 times with 2 left over
x = 2 2/5
You can make 6 different towers. If red was at the bottom, there'd be two different possibilities for that: red, yellow, blue, and red, blue, yellow. Same for if blue was at the bottom: blue, red, yellow, and blue, yellow, red. Yellow also applies: yellow, red, blue, and yellow, blue, red. 3*2=6, so 6 possible towers.
