B. four times the value of y = the value of y+9
To solve this problem, all we need to do is just set up a proportion. The two shapes are similar, which means that they are the same shape, but different sizes. Using the wording/letter arrangement in the problem, we can figure out which side of one triangle corresponds to which side of the other triangle.
Triangle LMV (with segments LM, MV, and VL) is similar to triangle UTK (with segments UT, TK, and KU).
Corresponding pairs:
LM(x) : UT(39)
MV(30) : TK(65)
VL : KU
However, we need only be interested in the first two pairs. Here is the proportion with letters:
LM / UT = MV / TK
and as numbers:
x / 39 = 30 / 65
Solve for x:
x / 39 = 30 / 65
Cross multiply:
(x)(65) = (39)(30)
Simplify:
65x = 1170
Divide:
65x/65 = 1170 / 65
Simplify:
x = 18
<h2>Answer:</h2>
The length of side LM (x) in triangle LMV is 18 units.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
An ellipse is the locus of a point such that its distances from two fixed points, called foci, have a sum that is equal to a positive constant.
The equation of an ellipse with a center at the origin and the x axis as the minor axis is given by:

Since the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from 357 km to 710 km, hence:
b = 357 km + 959 km = 1316 km
a = 710 km + 959 km = 1669 km
Therefore the equation of the ellipse is:
