Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

WY is the perpendicular bisector of XZ and so divides ΔWXZ into 2 congruent triangles ΔWXY and ΔWZY

Hence WZ = WX ← corresponding sides, thus

5y - 8 = 2y + 7 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

3y - 8 = 7 ( add 8 to both sides )

3y = 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 5

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

"The perpendicular bisector is a line or a segment perpendicular to a segment that passes through the midpoint of the segment."

It means:

\overline{XY}=\overline{YZ}\\2x+3=3x-5\\2x-3x=-5-3\\-x=-8\\x=8

Checking

\overline{XY}=2x+3\\\overline{XY}=2(8)+3\\\overline{XY}=16+3\\\overline{XY}=19

\overline{YZ}=3x-5\\\overline{YZ}=3(8)-5\\\overline{YZ}=24-5\\\overline{YZ}=19

Now, WY divides the triangle, forming two rectangular triangles, then:

(\overline{WZ})^2=(\overline{YZ})^2+(\overline{WY})^2\\(5y-8)^2=(19)^2+(\overline{WY})^2\\(5y-8)^2=361+(\overline{WY})^2\\(5y-8)^2-361=(\overline{WY})^2\\\\ (\overline{WY})^2=(5y-8)^2-361\\\overline{WY}=\sqrt{(5y-8)^2-361}

(\overline{WX})^2=(\overline{WY})^2+(\overline{XY})^2\\({2y+7})^2=(\overline{WY})^2+({19})^2\\({2y+7})^2=(\overline{WY})^2+361\\({2y+7})^2-361=(\overline{WY})^2\\\\ (\overline{WY})^2=({2y+7})^2-361\\\overline{WY}=\sqrt{({2y+7})^2-361}

We know that WY has the same value in both equations, then:

\sqrt{({2y+7})^2-361}=\sqrt{(5y-8)^2-361}\\({2y+7})^2-361=(5y-8)^2-361\\({2y+7})^2=(5y-8)^2\\2y+7=5y-8\\2y-5y=-8-7\\-3y=-15\\\\ y=\frac{-15}{-3}\\\\  y=5

Mariah spent $9.50 on 9 pounds of limes and pears. Limes cost $0.50 per pound and pears cost $1.50 per pound. Let l be the numbe
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears

Step-by-step explanation:

I + P = 9

0.5l + 1.5P = 9.5

I = 9 - P

0.5(9 - P) + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5-0.5P + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5 + P (1P) = 9.5

P = 9.5-4.5 = 5

I = 9 - 5 = 4

Answer: 4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears
