6j + 1/3n = 134...multiply by 3....18j + n = 402
1/3j + n = 31....multiply by 3....j + 3n = 93

the multiplying by 3 is optional...I just did it because it is easier to work with equations when there are no fractions.

18j + n = 402....multiply by -3
j + 3n = 93
----------------
-54j - 3n = - 1206 (result of multiplying by -3)
j + 3n = 93
----------------add
-53j = - 1113
j = -1113/-53
j = 21

j + 3n = 93
21 + 3n = 93
3n = 93 - 21
3n = 72
n = 72/3
n = 24

so Jasons collection (j) consists of 21 books and Nathans collection (n) consists of 24 books

Given that rectangle MNOP rectangle STUV what is the length of TU
Lerok [7]

Answer:

TU = 22.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the rectangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{UV}{OP} = \frac{TU}{NO}, substitute values, note NO = MP = 15

\frac{9}{6} = \frac{TU}{15} ( cross- multiply )

6TU = 135 ( divide both sides by 6 )

TU = 22.5 units
