Answer:shirt = $22.5

skirt= $8.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let shirt be x and skirt be y

4x + 9y = 168.75--------1

3x + 12y = 172.5---------2

Using elimination method

Multiply eqn 1 by 3 and eqn 2 by 4

12x + 27y= 506.25

12x + 48y = 690

Subtracting

-21y = -183.75

y = $8.75

Put in eqn 1

4x + 9×8.75 = 168.75

4x = 168.75 - 78.75

4x = 90

x = $22.5

Answer:

Height of the building = 50.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A person and a building are casting the shadows at the same time of the day.

Triangles formed by the person and his shadow and the building and its shadow will be similar.

Therefore, corresponding sides of the similar triangles will be proportional.

\frac{x}{28}=\frac{5.8}{3.2}

x = \frac{5.8\times 28}{3.2}

x = 50.75

x ≈ 50.8 ft

Finding angle measure using triangles ​
Rainbow [258]

x = 58°

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the diagram, lines HI and JK are parallel to each other.

∠AHI = 60°

∠JKI = 62°

∠JKI and ∠HIA are equal because when two lines are parallel then the corresponding angles are equal.

So,

∠JKI = ∠HIA = 62°

In ΔHIA,

∠AHI + ∠HIA + ∠IAH = 180°

60° + 62°+ x = 180°

122° + x = 180°

x = 180° - 122°

x = 58°
