Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the triangles is similar, so we have ...
3/5 = (3+x)/20
x = 20(3/5) -3
x = 9
__
4/5 = (4+y)/20
y = 20(4/5) -4
y = 12
__
3/5 = (3 + x + u)/60
u = 60(3/5) -3 -9
u = 24
__
4/5 = (4 +y +v)/60
v = 60(4/5) -4 -12
v = 32
Answer:
-8b + 9 - 5k
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming the blue highlighted portion is your answer, and is not a part of the initial question
(-4b + 15 - 7k) - (6 + 4b - 2k)
Combine like terms
-4b - + 4b
Negative + Positive = Negative
-4b - 4b = -8b
15 - 6 = 9
-7k - - 2k
Negative + Negative = Positive
-7k + 2k = -5k
Put them all together:
0b + 9 - 5k
Simplify
-8b + 9 - 5k
I got the same answer as you (just in a different order)
2/3 x 3/4 =6/12=1/2
(Multiply numerators, multiply denominators, simplify)
Its a true equation. Every value of x would make it true. Every number is real (XER)
