So 30/48=15/(x+9)
this could be easily solved by recognizing the proportion (the other way is usiing full algebra and doing multiply both sides by 48(x+9) and then divide both sides by 30 then subtract 9)
30 is 2 times of 15
therefor 48 is 2 times of (x+9)
48=2 times (x+9)
divide both sides by 2
24=x+9
subtract 9
15=x

x=15

Solve the system of equations.

Alenkasestr [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Substitute x from the second equation into the second one</u>

$2x - 9y = 14$

$2(-6y + 7) - 9y = 14$

$(2 * -6y) + (2 * 7) - 9y = 14$

$-12y + 14 - 9y = 14$

$-21y +14 - 14 = 14 - 14$

$-21y/-21 = 0 / -21$

$y = 0$

<u>Step 2: Substitute y into the second equation</u>

$x = -6y + 7$

$x = -6(0) + 7$

$x = 0 + 7$

$x = 7$

Answer: $x = 7, y = 0$

Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

ΔBCD and ΔACE are the similar triangles.

Therefore, by the property of similar triangles, corresponding sides of these similar triangles will be proportional.

$\frac{AC}{BC}= \frac{EC}{DC}$

$\frac{AB+BC}{BC}= \frac{ED+DC}{DC}$

$\frac{AB+6}{6}= \frac{24+8}{8}$

$\frac{AB+6}{6}= \frac{32}{8}$

$\frac{AB+6}{6}=4$

AB + 6 = 24

AB = 18

Option (B) will be the answer.
