We have three similar triangles, let's see if we can get this right, right vertex first, then other vertex from small side:
EDF ~ GDE ~ GEF
As ratios that means
ED:DF:EF = GD:DE:GE = GE:EF:GF
x:20:y = 5:x:GE = GE:y:15
Since we're after y we choose
20/y = y/15
20(15) = y²
y² = 300
y = 10√3
y ≈ 17.32
The correct answer is C, if you use the distributive property and multiply all of them by each other you would get x^3+2x^2+3x+6.
Hope this helps :-)

Formula
------------------------------------------------------
Circumference = πD
------------------------------------------------------
Find Diameter
------------------------------------------------------
3600π = πD
D = 3600 ← Divide by π on both sides
------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Diameter = 3600 unit

Answer:
The second boat will catch up in 8.5 hours, and they will be 187 km from their port.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the system of equations are d=18t+34 and d=22t, you first rewrite d=18t+34 as an equation. 18t+34=22 and that equals to 8.5=t. Then you solve the next one d=22t and the answer you got from the other equation, you substitute d=22(8.5) and that equals to 187.
