Answer:
x = 8.75, y = 8.125
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
( cross- multiply )
8x = 70 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 8.75
And
= 
( cross- multiply )
8y = 65 ( divide both sides by 8 )
y = 8.125
Answer:
P(raspberry) = 45/92

Number of raspberries / number of berries = 45/92
Doing an X and Y table i do not see that they will have the same amount. Adrian will always have 4 more comic books than Roy
Lets write down what we know...
Laura walks 3/5 mile to school everyday
Laura=3/5mile
Isaiah's walk is 3 times as long as Lauras, so
Isaiah=Laura*3
We know how far Lauras walk is so we can solve for Isaiah's walk
Isaiah=3/5*3 (or Isaiah=3/5+3/5+3/5 if thats easier for you to solve for)
Isaiah=9/5 miles
Now we know the answer! Great, Isaiah walks 9/5 miles to school each day. But 9/5 is an improper fraction, so lets convert it to a mixed number.
9/5=
To solve for this, we have to find out how many times 5 can go into 9. 5 goes into 9 one time with a remainder of 4, so we can write the mixed number as.
9/5= 1 4/5
Isaiah walks 9/5miles or 1 4/5 miles. Both are correct.
