Answer:
21/42
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps :)
Make a proportion of corresponding sides
Side AU corresponds to Side AB
Side UV corresponds to Side BC
Find AB by adding AU and UB
AU = 20x + 108
UB = 273
AB = 20x + 381
Make proportion
AU/AB = UV/BC
20x + 108/ 20x + 381 = 444/ 703
Cross Multiply
(20x + 108)(703) = (20x + 381)(444)
14,060x + 75,924 = 8,880x + 169,164
Solve for x
14,060x + 75,924 = 8,880x + 169,164
I'm sure you can figure this out
180=11+2x
-11 -11
169/2=2x\2
x=84.5
Okay so the answer is x= 9.5 y= 9
3x + 2(-2x + 3) = 50 |use distributive property
3x - 4x + 6 = 50
-x + 6 = 50 |subtract 6 from both sides
-x = 44 |change signs
x = -44
