*see attachement for the triangles given

Answer:

PQ = 6.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of similar shapes or figures are proportional to each other. Since ∆LMN ~ ∆OPQ, the ratio of their corresponding sides would therefore be equal. Thus:

LN/OQ = MN/PQ

LN = 5

OQ = 17

MN = 2

PQ = ?

Plug in the values

5/17 = 2/PQ

Cross multiply

5*PQ = 2*17

5*PQ = 34

PQ = 34/5

PQ = 6.8

What do I have to do?

This is to do with ratios, the idea behind it is that you see that the side of length 24 is an enlarged version of the side labelled 16. Using this you can see that the ratio of enlargement is 1.5, therefore x = 26/1.5 = 53/2

What is the solution to the system of linear equations?
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

(3, -1)

x is 3

y is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x:

2x+y=5

<em>Subtract y from both sides</em>

2x= -y+5

<em>Subtract 5 from both sides</em>

2x-5= -y

<em>Multiply both sides by 4</em>

8x-20= -4y

5x+4y=11

<em>Subtract 4y from both sides</em>

5x= -4y+11

<em>Subtract 11 from both sides</em>

5x-11= -4y

<u>Combine equations:</u>

5x-11=8x-20

<em>Subtract 5x from both sides</em>

-11=3x-20

<em>Add 20 to both sides</em>

9=3x

3x=9

<em>Divide both sides by 3</em>

x=3

Solving for y:

2x+y=5

<em>Subtract y from both sides</em>

2x= -y+5

-y+5=2x

<em>Multiply both sides by 5</em>

-5y+25=10x

5x+4y=11

<em>Subtract 4y from both sides</em>

5x= -4y+11

-4y+11=5x

<em>Multiply both sides by 2</em>

-8y+22=10x

<u>Combine equations:</u>

-8y+22= -5y+25

<em>Add 8y to both sides</em>

22=3y+25

<em>Divide both sides by 25</em>

-3=3y

3y= -3

<em>Divide both sides by 3</em>

y= -1
