Answer: 2/15

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the information that at Bridgeview School, 7/10 of the total students are driven to school by their parents and that 1/6 of the total students at Bridgeview School ride the bus.

The fraction of the students that walk to school would be:

= 1 - (7/10 + 1/6)

= 1 - (21/30 + 5/30)

= 1 - 26/30

= 4/30

= 2/15

First notice that the triangle with sides x,y,a and the triangle with sides z,a+b,x are similar. This is true because the angle between sides x,y in the smaller triangle is clearly 30^\circ, while the angle between sides y,z in the larger triangle is clearly 60^\circ. So the triangles are similar with sides x,y,a corresponding to a+b,z,x, respectively.

Now both triangles are 30^\circ-60^\circ-90^\circ, which means there's a convenient ratio between its sides. If the length of the shortest leg is \ell_1, then the length of the longer leg is \ell_2=\sqrt3\ell_1 and the hypotenuse has length \ell_3=\sqrt{{\ell_1}^2+{\ell_2}^2}=2\ell_1.

Since x is the shortest leg in the larger triangle, it follows that a+b=2x, so a+b=15=2x\implies x=\dfrac{15}2

Problem 12)

You are correct. You solve the system
x+1 = 3y
3x-4 = 5y+1
for x and y to find that x = 5 and y = 2

As a check
x+1 = 3y
5+1 = 3*2
6 = 6 ... true equation
and
3x-4 = 5y+1
3*5-4 = 5*2+1
11 = 11 ... true equation
Both equations are true when (x,y) = (5,2) so the answer is confirmed
