1. x=35, y=18

2. x=20, y=23.3

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

when two triangles are similar, the ratio of their corresponding sides is equal and is called the scale factor.Given that;

ΔJKL ∼ ΔNML then

JK/NM =KL/ML

40/16=x/14

x=(40*14)/16 =35

Applying same ratio to find y;

LJ/LN=JK/NM

45/y=40/16

y⇒(45*16)/40 =18

2.

Given that ΔDEF∼ ΔHJG then;

HJ/DE=JG/EF

15/9=y/14

y=(15*14)/9

y=23.3

Applying the same ratio in finding value of x;

HJ/DE=GH/FD

15/9=x/12

x=(15*12)/9 =20

A train traveling 50 mph left a station 30 minutes before a second train running at 55 mph. how soon did the second train overta
Finger [1]
<span>1st train DATA:
rate = 50 mph ; time = x hrs ; distance = rt = 50x miles

2nd train DATA:
rate = 55 mph ; time = (x-(1/2)) hrs ; distance = rt = 55(x-(1/2)) miles


Equation:
distance = distance 
50x = 55(x-(1/2)
50x = 55x - (55/2)
-5x = -55/2
x = 11/2
x = 5 1/2 hrs (time at which the 2nd train overtakes the 1st train)
Hope this helps!

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The maximum number of miles they can travel is 6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the fix charge of $2, the amount of money left for the rest of the trip is $18. In order to find how many miles $18 cover when the cab charges $3 per hour, 18 is divided by 3. 18/3=6.
