Answer : The value of x and y is 8 and 10 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation :
As we known that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal line then consecutive interior angles are supplementary.
From the given figure we conclude that:
...........(1)
............(2)
...........(3)
...........(4)
Now we adding equation 2 and 4, we get the value of x.
Now we are putting the value of x in 4, we get the value of y.
Therefore, the value of x and y is 8 and 10 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question needs to be more specific. But assuming it is 0.5y/(4/9), I will solve it.
This would make it 4.5y/4 =y + 3/8
- Multiply 4 to both sides
4.5y = 4y + 12/8
- Subtract 4y to both sides
0.5y = 12/8
- Divide both sides by 0.5
y = 3
Now plug in to check.
0.5(3)/(4/9)=3+3/8
Both equals 3.375!

5/6 of an hour is 50 min. So 50 times 3 equals 150 min for reading. 3/4 of an hour is 45 min. 45 times 2 equals 90 min for science. And 1/2 of an hour is 30 min. So 30 times 4 equals 120 mins for math. Add 150,90, and 120 min all together and you get 360 mins total. Divide 360 by 60, and you get 6 hours total that Michaela spent on reading, math, and science. Not 2 1/2.
The correct answer is 37.5.
