Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 30; y = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

JK = x            PR = 20

JL = 21           PQ = y

LK = 18           QR = 12

Process

1.- Find x

Use proportions to find it

                 JK/PR = LK/QR

Substitution

                 x/20 = 18/12

Solve for x

                  x = 20(18/12)

                  x = 360/12

                 x = 30

2.- Find y

                PQ/JL = PR/JK

Substitution

                y/21 = 20/30

Solve for y

                y = 21(20/30)

                y = 420/30

                y = 14

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, approximately 300,000,000 m/s. Part A How much time does it take for a radio message t
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to understand that every time a radio wave goes 300,000,000 meters a second passes, literally what meter per second means.    of course it doesn't go that far, it goes 384,000 one way and then the same distance back, which makes 768,000.  Under a third of the distance to make 1 second, so it will be less than one second.  

You also want to understand the formula for speed.  speed = distance / time.  Whch also means, to find time you can change it to be time = distance / speed.  And hey, we have distance and speed.  768,000 / 300,000,000 = .00256, I'll leave the significant figures to you unless you need help with them.  but that's .00256 of a second.  or .00256 s
