Because the triangles are similar, corresponding sides have the same ratio.
.. AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC
.. 24/18 = 8/y = (15 +x)/15
Then we can solve for x and y.
.. x = 15*(24/18) -15 = 5
.. y = 8*(18/24) = 6

Solve pls thank you​
Dominik [7]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are 16 grams initally. Then, the amount of water decreases by 3.5%.

So first we must find 3.5% of 16. 3.5% in decimal form is 0.035, since you divide 3.5 by 100. Then, when you multiply 0.035 by 16, you get 0.56. Since the solution decreased by that percentage, you must subtract 0.56 from 16, which is 15.44.

Then the amount of water decreases by 4.25%. That in decimal form is 0.0425. You multiply it by 15.44, and it comes out to 0.6562. You subtract that from 15.44, not 16, since some of the water has evaporated. So you get 14.7838.

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors of 66 are ...

  66 = 1·66 = 2·33 = 3·22 = 6·11

the sum of three numbers is 131. the third number is 4 times the first. the second number is 5 more than the first. what are the
Sphinxa [80]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers are:

a, b, and c

the equation would be:

a+b+c = 131

c = 4a

b = a+5

=>

a + a+5 +4a = 131

6a +5 = 131

6a = 131-5

6a = 126

a= 126/6

a = 21

b = a+5 = 21+5

b = 26

c = 4a = 4(21)

c = 84
