Please answer this quick for me

Mathematics
1 answer:
nlexa [21]4 years ago

Answer:

16/20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write this as a proportion

4          x

----- = ----------

5          y

Using cross products

4y = 5x

We know that x+y = 36

We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns.

4y = 5x

x+y =36

Divide by first equation by 4

y = 5/4 x

substitute this into the 2nd equation

x + 5/4x = 36

Getting a common denominator

4/4x + 5/4 x = 36

Combining like terms

9/4 x =36

Multiply each side by 4/9 to isolate x

4/9 * 9/4x = 4/9*36

x = 16

Now we need to find y

y = 5/4x

y = 5/4 (16)

y= 20

The fraction is x/y

16/20

Examine the pair of triangles given below. If EDC ~ KGH then the value of K is... (photo included)
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

56°

Step-by-step explanation:

the question tells us the 2 triangles are similar, thus the angoes are identical on the 2 triangles. with this right triangle, you can see there is a long leg, short leg, and the hypotenuse. in order to solve this, you need to find the angle on the first triangle that corresponds to the second triangle. in this case, we can conclude angle K corresponds to angle E because the angles are adjacent to the long leg and hypotenuse, and opposite to the short leg.
