Find the length of YX

Mathematics
1 answer:
koban [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

YX = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar triangles. So,

\frac{VW}{XW}=\frac{VZ}{YX}\\\\\frac{45}{30}=\frac{3x-9}{x+8}\\

Cross multiplication

45*(x+8) = 30 * (3x - 9)

45x + 360 = 90x - 270

360 = 90x - 270 - 45x

360 = 45x - 270

360 + 270 = 45x

45x = 630

x = 630/45

x = 14

YX = x +8 = 14 + 8 = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the numbers to percentages, divide each number by the table total (80) and multiply by 100%. That is equivalent to multiplying each number by 1.25%. For example, 18·1.25% = 22.5% (middle table number).

Two cars leave towns 760 kilometers apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One car's rate is 12 kilometers per hou
zaharov [31]

Answer:

89 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = Rate(speed) × Time

D = R × T

T = 4 hours

One car's rate is 12 kilometers per hour less than the other's.

Hence:

First's car's rate = r × 4 = 4r

Second car's distance = (r + 12) × 4 = 4r + 48

4r + 4r + 48 = 760

8r + 48 = 760

8r = 760 - 48

8r = 712

r = 712/8

r = 89 km/hr

The rate of the slower car is 89 km/hr
