Answer:

After 5 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Westley starts with $85 and saves $5 per week. So:

y=85+5x

Buttercup starts with $10 and saves $20 per week. So:

y=10+20x

When they have the same amount of money, the two equations will be equal to each other. Therefore:

85+5x=10+20x

Solve for x. Subtract 10 from both sides:

75+5x=20x

Subtract 5x from both sides:

75=15x

Divide both sides by 15:

x=5

Westley and Buttercup will have the same amount of money after 5 weeks.

Find the length of CU, the triangles are similar.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

CU = 117

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{WC}{WU} = \frac{CD}{UV}

substituting in values to the ratios

\frac{26}{36x-1} = \frac{24}{132} ( cross- multiply )

24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )

36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )

36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )

x = 4

CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117
