Answer:

x= 43, y=215

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number be x,

Let the other number be y.

x= 5y

x - y= 172

Putting value of x in equation 2.

5y - y = 172

4y = 172

y= 172/4

y= 43

Putting value of y in eq. 1

x= 5(43)

x=215.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

D. 6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The third longest side of ABCD is 12 feet long and the third longest side of EFGH is 18 feet long.

As they are similar the corresponding sides are in the same ratio so

12/18 =  x/9 where x is the 4th side of ABCD.

2/3 = x/9

3x = 18

x = 6 feet.

Mrs Dang drove her daughter to school at the average speed of 45 miles per hour. She returned home by the same route at the aver
drek231 [11]

Answer: Time it took her to get to the school is 0.6 hours

The distance of the school from their home is 27 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs Dang drove her daughter to school at the average speed of 45 miles per hour.

Let x miles = distance from the school to their home.

Distance = speed × time

Time = distance / speed

Time used in going to school will be

x/45

She returned home by the same route. This means that distance back home is also x miles.

She returned at an average speed of 30 miles per hour.

Time used in returning home from school will be x/30

x/45

If the trip took one half hour, then the time spent in going to school and the time spent in returning is 1 1/2 hours = 1.5 hours. Therefore

x/30 + x/45 = 1.5

(15x + 10x) /450 = 1.5

15x + 10x = 450 × 1.5 = 675

25x = 675

x = 675/25 = 27

Time it took her to get to the school will be x/45

= 27/45 = 0.6 hours
