According to the image, HKJ and FGH are similar, we can apply the theorem of thales
since GK and GF are parallels, so

HK / HF = HJ / HG = KJ / GF and as we see on the figure, HK = HF /2, this implies 2HK =HF

HK / 2HK = KJ / GF it is equivalent to 1/2 = 2y+5 / 5y +3

likewise, equivalent to 5y +3 = 4y +10, 5y-4y = 10-3, and y = 7

so the answer is 7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Aakash body temperature during the day = 99.2°F.

If by evening his body temperature increases by 3.4°F, then his body temperature in the evening will be expresses as the sum of his temperature in the day and the increment.

Temperature in the evening = 99.2°F+3.4°F.

Temperature in the evening = 102.6°F.

Hence his body temperature in the evening is 102.6°F.
