Answer:

x=24, y=10, z=17

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that \Delta PHS\cong\Delta CNF.

Then by CPCTC, ∠P≅∠C, ∠H≅∠N, and ∠S≅∠F.

Therefore, let’s solve for each of the angle relations.

∠P≅∠C:

We know that ∠P is 36°. ∠C is (4z-32)°. Therefore:

36=4z-32

Solve for z:

\begin{aligned}36&=4z-32\;\;\; \text{Add 32 to both sides}\\68&=4z\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\17&=z\end{aligned}

So, the value of z is 17.

∠H≅∠N

∠H is (6x-29) and ∠N is 115. So:

6x-29=115

Solve for x:

\begin{aligned} 6x-29&=115\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Add 29 to both sides}\\6x&=144\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\\ x&=24\end{aligned}

Therefore, the value of x is 24.  

∠S≅∠F

We will need to find ∠S.

We already know that ∠P is 36.

∠H will be (6x-29). Substitute 24 for x to acquire: (6(24)-29)=144-29=115.

A triangle always totals 180°. Therefore, 115+36+∠S=180 or 151+∠S=180.

Therefore, ∠S=29.

∠F is (3y-1). So:

29=3y-1

Solve for y:

\begin{aligned} 29&=3y-1\;\;\;\;\;\text{Add 1 to both sides}\\ 30&=3y\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Divide both sides by 3}\\ 10&=y\end{aligned}

Therefore, the value of y is 10.

So, x=24, y=10, and z=17.

And we are done!

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Juan practiced the violin for 9 hours last week. For each 3 hours that he practices the violin, he practices 2.5 hours of cello. So

3h violin - 2.5h cello

9h violin - xh cello

3x = 9*2.5

x = 7.5

He practiced 7.5 hours of cello, the same as Nina.

For every 3 hours Nina spends practicing the viola she practices the cello for 2 hours. So:

3h viola - 2h cello

xh viola - 7.5h cello

2x = 3*7.5

x = 7.5*1.5

x = 11.25

Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
