Answer:0.8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:got it right
There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.
It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.
Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle
base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)
Plug in the numbers
x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5
The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm
Applying the knowledge of fractions, the bigger one is: one-sixth of 138.
<h3>What are Fractions?</h3>
Fractions can be defined as a part of a digit or number, and are not whole numbers. For example, a third is 1/3, one-sixth is 1/6, which are both fractions.
Therefore, let's evaluate each statement:
1/3 of 45 = 1/3 × 45 = 15
1/6 of 138 = 1/6 × 138 = 23
Therefore, the bigger of the two is: one-sixth of 138.

Y coordinate on solving both equations comes out to be 0
-2x+3y=-6
3y = -6+2x
put the value of 3y in equation 2nd
5x-2(-6+2x) =15
5x+12-4x = 15
x=3
put value of X in 3y = -6+2x
3y = -6+2*3 = -6+6 = 0
thus y = 0
