The picture in the attached figure

we know that
RX+RA+XA=24
XA=24-RA-RX------> XA=24-11-4----> XA=9
XA=XP+PA
so
XP+PA=9------> XP=9-PA-----> equation 1

RX/XP=RA/PA

11*XP=4*PA-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
11*[9-PA]=4*PA-----> 99-11*PA=4*PA----> 15*PA=99----> PA=99/15
PA=6.6
XP=9-PA-----> XP=9-6.6----> XP=2.4

the answer is the option
<span>B. XP = 2.4, PA = 6.6 </span>

Pachacha [2.7K]
5x + 4y = 32 ⇒ 45x + 36y = 288
9x -  1y = 33 ⇒ <u>45x -    5y = 165</u>
                                    <u>41y</u> = <u>123</u>
                                     41      41
                                        y = 3
                            5x + 4(3) = 32
                              5x + 12 = 32
                               <u>    - 12  - 12</u>
                                      <u>5x</u> = <u>20</u>
