Find the value of y in the equation

We want to find y from the equation
\frac{3}{y-2} =8

Multiply each side by (y - 2).
(y-2).( \frac{3}{y-2)}) = 8(y-2)
Note that (y-2) in the numerator and denominator cancel out on the left side.
Therefore
3 = 8(y - 2)
3 = 8y - 16
Add 16  to each side.
3 + 16 = 8y - 16 + 16
19 = 8y
Divideach side by 8.
19/8 = y

Answer: y= \frac{19}{8}

Find UV (Pic Stated Below)
natta225 [31]

Answer:

UV=29

Step-by-step explanation:

In right triangles AQB and AVB,

∠AQB = ∠AVB ...(i)  {Right angles}

∠QBA = ∠VBA ...(ii)  {Given that they are equal}

We know that sum of all three angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degree. So wee can write sum equation for each triangle


∠AQB+∠QBA+∠BAQ=180 ...(iii)

∠AVB+∠VBA+∠BAV=180 ...(iv)


using (iii) and (iv)

∠AQB+∠QBA+∠BAQ=∠AVB+∠VBA+∠BAV

∠AVB+∠VBA+∠BAQ=∠AVB+∠VBA+∠BAV  (using (i) and (ii))

∠BAQ=∠BAV...(v)


Now consider triangles AQB and AVB;

∠BAQ=∠BAV  {from (v)}

∠QBA = ∠VBA {from (ii)}

AB=AB  {common side}

So using ASA, triangles AQB and AVB are congruent.

We know that corresponding sides of congruent triangles are equal.

Hence

AQ=AV

5x+9=7x+1

9-1=7x-5x

8=2x

divide both sides by 2

4=x

Now plug value of x=4 into UV=7x+1

UV=7*4+1=28+1=29

<u>Hence UV=29 is final answer.</u>
