The answer is x = 10, y = 10.

Step 1: rearrange the second equation for y.
Step 2: substitute y from the second equation into the first equation.
Step 3. Calculate y.

Step 1.
<span>The second equation is: 6x + 3y = 90
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
(6x + 3y)/3 = 90/3
6x/3 + 3y/3 = 30
2x + y = 30
Rearrange the equation:
y = 30 - 2x

Step 2.
</span>Substitute y from the second equation (y = 30 - 2x) into the first equation:
<span>15x + 9y = 240
15x + 9(30 - 2x) = 240
15x + 270 - 18x = 240
15x - 18x = 240 - 270
-3x = -30
x = -30/-3
x = 10

Step 3.
Since </span>y = 30 - 2x and x = 10, then:
y = 30 - 2 * 10
y = 30 - 20
y = 10

I need the answer asap pls! :)
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

18m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the given traingles are similar

We get

\frac{JK}{MN} =  \frac{KL}{ML}

\frac{JK}{42}  =  \frac{21}{49}

JK =  \frac{21 \times 42}{49}

JK =  \frac{3 \times 7 \times 6 \times 7}{7 \times 7}

JK = 3 \times 6 = 18

JK = 18

Hence the distance across river is 18m
