Answer:

The length of XY is either 10 or 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: ZY = 5, XC = 3 and DC = 4.

Case 1: Rectangle ABCD is smaller than ZBXY.

The opposite sides of the rectangle are same.

ZY=BC+XC

5=BC+3

2=BC

The length of ABCD is 4 and width of ABCD is 2. The width of ZBXY is 5. The corresponding sides of the similar rectangles are is in the same proportion.

\frac{4}{XY}=\frac{2}{5}

\frac{4\times 5}{2}=XY

10=XY

Therefore the value of XY is 10.

Case 2: Rectangle ABCD is larger than ZBXY.

ZY=BC-XC

5=BC-3

8=BC

The length of ABCD is 4 and width of ABCD is 8. The width of ZBXY is 5. The corresponding sides of the similar rectangles are is in the same proportion.

\frac{4}{XY}=\frac{8}{5}

\frac{4\times 5}{8}=XY

2.5=XY

Therefore the value of XY is 2.5.

In supply (and demand) problems, y is the number of items the supplier will produce (or the public will buy) if the price of the
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

A) (17 ; 550)

B) $17/item

C) 550

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must calculate the intersection point of the two lines. Since in that point <em>y</em> has the same value in both equations, we can obtain <em>x </em>by equalling the two equations and then using that value for obtaining <em>y</em>:

5x+465=-6x+652\\5x+6x=652-465\\11x=187\\x=\frac{187}{11}\\x=17

So the value of <em>x</em> in the intersection point is 17. We now use this value with either one of the equations to obtain <em>y</em><em>. </em>Let's use the supply equation:

y=5*17+465\\y=550

So the intersection point is (17 ; 550)

Supply and demand are in equilibrium when the amount of items on supply are the same as the ones on demand. That is the point were the two lines intersect, which means the selling price is the <em>x</em> coordinate and the amount of items is the <em>y</em> coordinate, so that is a selling price of <em>$17/item</em> with a number of items of <em>550</em>.

Is 2/4 greater than 2/5
Anastaziya [24]
Yep! 2/4, also known as 1/2 is larger than 2/5. You can verify this by getting a common denominator of 20 by multiplying the top and bottom of 2/4 by 5 and the top and bottom of 2/5 by 4, and asking yourself of this is true: Does 10/20=8/20? No it does not! Therefore 2/4 is bigger than 2/5!
