Answer:
x=1 and y=4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given system of equations</u>
3x+5y=7
5x+10y=13
<u />
<u>Multiply first equation by 2</u>
2(3x+5y)=2(7)
6x+10y=14
<u>Eliminate y-variable to get "x"</u>
6x+10y=14
<u>- 5x+10y=13</u>
x = 1
<u>Substitute x=1 into either equation and find "y"</u>
3x+5y=7
3(1)+5y=7
3+5y=7
5y=4
y=4/5
Therefore, x=1 and y=4/5
The midpoint of 18.6 and 18.5 is 18.55
Answer:
The Depth of the lake had increased by 19%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Depth of lake few months ago = 1300 ft
depth of lake currently = 1547 ft
We need to find the percent of increase in depth of lake.
Solution:
First we will find the increase in depth of lake.
Increase in depth of lake can be calculated by subtracting Depth of lake few months ago from depth of lake currently.
framing in equation form we get;
increase in depth of lake = 
Now to find the percent of increase in depth of lake we will divide increase in depth of lake from Depth of lake few months ago and then multiply by 100.
framing in equation form we get;
percent of increase in depth of lake = 
Hence the Depth of the lake had increased by 19%.
Answer:
The angles
are used to prove the similarity of triangles VWZ and YXZ.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given information: 
Two triangles are called congruent if their corresponding sides are in same proportion or the corresponding angles are same.
If two corresponding sides of triangle have same proportion and their inclined angle is same, then by SAS rule of similarity both triangles are similar.
From the given figure it is noticed that the ∠VZW and ∠YZX are vertically opposite angles. The vertically opposite angles are always equal.
(Vertically opposite angles)
(Given)
By SAS rule of similarity

Therefore the angles
are used to prove the similarity of triangles VWZ and YXZ.
