Answer:

x : y = 5 : 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{x+3y}{5x+4y} = \frac{1}{3} ( cross- multiply )

5x + 4y = 3(x + 3y)

5x + 4y = 3x + 9y ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x + 4y = 9y ( subtract 4y from both sides )

2x = 5y ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = \frac{5}{2} y ( divide both sides by y )

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{5}{2} , that is

x : y = 5 : 2

Answer:

x/y = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

(x+3y) /( 5x+4y)= 1/3 means : 5x+4y = 3(x+3y)

5x+4y = 3x+9y

5x-3x = 9y - 4y

2x = 5y

now divid by y : 2x/y = 5y/y

2x/y = 5 so : x/y = 5/2

Distribute
x-12x+30=-x-4

Combine like terms
-11x+30=-x-4

Add x to both sides
-10x+30= -4

Subtract 30 from both sides
-10x=-34

Divide both sides by -10
x=3.4

Final answer: x=3.4

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangles
gogolik [260]

Answer:

To find the Hypotenuse the Pythagoras theorem is used

h² = a² + b²

h = hypotenuse

a = 15cm

b = 8cm

h = ?

h² = 15² + 8²

h = √225 + 64

h = √289

h = 17cm

The Hypotenuse is 17cm

Hope this helps.
