Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, the sides of the bigger triangle is twice that or the smaller

Thus, we have it that for similar sides, we simply have to multiply the smaller side length by 2 to give the larger

We have this as:

2(2y + 5) = 5y + 3

4y + 10 = 5y+ 3

5y-4y = 10-3

y = 7

Answer:

B.25

Explanation:

The figures are similar. This means that corresponding sides have the same ratio.

This helps us set up a proportion.

We know that ML corresponds with DC, which gives us the ratio

8/40

EF will correspond with NH; this gives us the ratio

5/x

The proportion is then

8/40 = 5/x

Cross multiplying, we have

8(x) = 40(5)

8x = 200

Divide both sides by 8:

8x/8 = 200/8

x = 25

Answer:

y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope is y2-y1 over x2-x1

So its 8-(-6) over 8-8 which equals 14/0 which means the equation of the line is y=8

This is a horizontal line on 8 on the y axis
