Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of a side of PQRS to the corresponding side in TUVW. is 6:4=3:2.
The ratio of RS:VW=3:2. RS=12, and VW=x. 12:x=3:2. 3 multiplied by 4 is 12, so 2 multiplied by 4 is x. So, the makes x=8.

Answer:
x = 2
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x - 5 -------------------(I)
x + y = -1 ----------------(II)
Substitute y = x -5 in equation (II)
x + (x - 5) = -1
x + x - 5 = -1 {Combine like terms}
2x - 5 = -1 {Add 5 to both sides}
2x = -1 + 5
2x = 4 {Divide both sides by 2}
x = 4/2
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 in equation (I)
y = 2 - 5
y = -3
