Answer:

s=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that triangle ABC is similar to XYZ, we know that the side lengths will be proportional to one another. As such, we should take a ratio to determine the side length of s.

$\frac{XY}{AB}=\frac{XZ}{AC}\\\\\frac{9}{6} =\frac{s}{8}\\\frac{8*9}{6} =s\\s=72/6=12\\s=12$

totally $14 \frac{hours}{week} \ *\ 10 weeks\ =\ 140\ hours$

Write an expression for the sequence of operations described below.

This might look hard at first, but if you break it down into parts, it will be much easier. With that said, start with what you know. You see that the word problem says "the difference of y and 9", which means that you have to stubtract them. So, part of the equation is going to be y - 9. Now to look at the rest of the word problem. It says to divide by 3, so now you have to take what you have so far and divide that by 3. This means that you are going to have to divide the y - 9 by 3.

Your answer should be:
y - 9 / 3
