Answer:

x=larger no

y= smaller no

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=7--------(1)

x=16 + 2y------(2)

(2)--->(1)

16+2y+y = 7

3y + 16 = 7

3y = -9

y = -3//

so x=10

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is split into two similar triangles. They have the same shape but not the same size. To solve, write a proportion to find KY.

$\frac{95.2}{168}=\frac{34}{KY}$

Cross multiply to solve for KY.

95.2(KY) = 168(34)

95.2KY = 5,712

KY = 60

Add KY to 34 to find x.

60 + 34 = 94.

Answer:

x = 5 $\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the outer right triangle

and tan30° = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}$

tan30° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{x}{15}$

Multiply both sides by 15

15 × tan30° = x

x = 15 × $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}$ = 5 $\sqrt{3}$
