Complete Question
The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image
Answer:
the value of 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The equation is (x + y = 40)
The first value of x is 
The second equation is (0.75x + 1.5y = 40)
So substituting 

=> 
Now substituting y and
into second equation

=> 
So 
Answer:
The answer to the question is
The ladybug begins to slide
Explanation:
To solve the question we assume that the frictional force of the ladybug and the gentleman bug are the same
Where the frictional force equals
= μ×N = m×g×μ
and the centripetal force is given by m·ω²·r
If we denote the properties of the ladybug as 1 and that of the gentleman bug as 2, we have
m₁×g×μ = m₁·ω²·r₁ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₁
and for the gentleman bug we have
m₂×g×μ = m₂·ω²·r₂ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₂
But r₁ = 2×r₂
Therefore substituting the values of r₁ =2×r₂ we have
g×μ = ω²·r₁ = g×μ = ω²·2·r₂
Therefore ω²·r₂ = 0.5×g×μ for the ladybug. That is the ladybug has to overcome half the frictional force experienced by the gentleman bug before it start to slide
