Answer:

JK = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ BKJ and Δ BCA are similar and ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{JK}{AC}$ = $\frac{BK}{BC}$ , substitute values

$\frac{JK}{40}$ = $\frac{3}{5}$ ( cross- multiply )

5JK = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )

JK = 24

Answer:

$\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}}$ < $\frac{5}{3}$ < $\sqrt{5}$ < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following numbers, $\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}}, \sqrt{5}, 2.5, and, \frac{5}{3}$ , let's express each as whole or decimal numbers, to find out the least to the greatest.

$\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}} = \frac{\sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{4}}$

$\frac{3}{2} = 1.5$

$\sqrt{5}$ ≈ 2.2

2.5 (already in decimal form)

$\frac{5}{3}$ ≈ 1.7

From the least to the greatest, we have:

$\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}}$ < $\frac{5}{3}$ < $\sqrt{5}$ < 2.5
