Answer:
x=2(twice)
y=0(twice)
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using substitution method
So let's solve
y=x+2....(1)
y=x2+5x+6....(2)
Substitute (1) into(2)
X+2=x2+5x+6
Collect like terms
X2+5x-x+6-2=0
X2+4x+4=0
X2+2x+2x+4=0
X(x+2)+2(x+2)=0
(X+2)(x+2)=0
X+2=0
Substrate 2 from both sides
X=-2
X+2=0
X=-2
Let's substitute the value of x into (1)
y=x+2
y=-2+2
Y=0(twice)
We will calculate this by using ratios and because these two triangles are similar, which is very important.
Explanation:
We see that the FG = 9 corresponds to the VU = 21. Therefore, FH = 18 corresponds to the UW = x.
9 : 21 = 18 : x
x = (21*18)/9
x = 378/9
x = 42.
The correct answer is B. 42.
