Answer:

x = 12

y = 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using ratios

5        10

---  = -----

6         x

Using cross products

5x = 6*10

5x = 60

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

5        8

---  = -----

6         y

Using cross products

5y = 6*8

5y = 48

Divide by 5

5y/5 = 48/5

y = 9.6

|First of all, the triangles are equal by ASA the way the diagram has been marked.

B and E are both right angles.
Side BC = Side DE
<BCA =< EDA 

So triangle BCA = triangle EDA

Now to the letters.
x = y - 1                 Add 1 to both sides.
x + 1 = y                (1)
3x - 2 = 2y + 1       Subtract 1 from both sides.
3x -2 - 1 = 2y
3x - 3 = 2y             Divide by 2
3x/2 - 3/2 = 2y/2
1.5x - 1.5 = y    (2)

Step One
Since (1) and (2) both have y isolated on their respective right sides, they can be equated.

1.5x - 1.5 = x + 1       Take an x from both sides.
0.5x - 1.5 = x - x + 1
0.5x - 1.5 = 1           Add  1.5 to both sides.
0.5x =  1 + 1.5
0.5x = 2.5                 Divide 0.5 on both sides.
0.5x/0.5 = 2.5/0.5

x = 5

Now we need a y value.
x = y - 1 
5 = y - 1 Add 1 to both sides.
5 + 1 = y - 1 + 1
6 = y 

So the 2 sides and the 2 angles are equal when 
x = 5
y = 6

Suppose a shoe factory produces both low-grade and high-grade shoes. The factory produces at least twice as many low-grade as hi
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The factory should produce 166 pairs of high-grade shoes and 364 pairs of low-grade shoes for maximum profit

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for the shoe production are;

The number of low grade shoes the factory produces ≥ 2 × The number of high-grade shoes produced by the factory

The maximum number of shoes the factory can produce = 500 pairs of shoes

The number of high-grade shoes the dealer calls for daily ≥ 100 pairs

The profit made per pair of high-grade shoed = Birr 2.00

The profit made per of low-grade shoes = Birr 1.00

Let 'H', represent the number of high grade shoes the factory produces and let 'L' represent he number of low-grade shoes the factory produces, we have;

L ≥ 2·H...(1)

L + H ≤ 500...(2)

H ≥ 100...(3)

Total profit, P = 2·H + L

From inequalities (1) and (2), we have;

3·H ≤ 500

H ≤ 500/3 ≈ 166

The maximum number of high-grade shoes that can be produced, H ≤ 166

Therefore, for maximum profit, the factory should produce the maximum number of high-grade shoe pairs, H = 166 pairs

The number of pairs of low grade shoes the factory should produce, L = 500 - 166 = 334 pairs

The maximum profit, P = 2 × 166 + 1 × 364 = 696
