Mathematics

ELEN [110]3 years ago

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=27}

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

ΔADC and ΔCDB are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{AD}{DC}=\dfrac{DC}{DB}

We have:

AD=12,\ DC=18,\ DB=y

Substitute:

\dfrac{12}{18}=\dfrac{18}{y}             <em>cross multiply</em>

12y=(18)(18)

12y=324            <em>divide both sides by 12</em>

y=27

1. -1/5>-3/5 because we have like denominators we compare the inputs by the numerators.

2. 3/4 > 5/8 the least common denominator is: 8

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

                                   3/4 = 6/8    5/8 = 5/8

Comparing the numerators of the equivalent fractions we have:

                                   6/8 > 5/8
