Answer:

<em>x = 12 and y = 16</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following lengths;

NO = x + 2y,

MO = 3x,

PQ = 6x + 4, and

OQ = 2y + 4.

The following postulates are true;

MN = PQ

Since MO + ON = MN

MN = 3x + x+2y

MN = 4x + 2y

Recall that PQ = 6x+4

Equating both expressions;

4x + 2y=  6x+4

Collect like terms;

4x-6x + 2y = 4

-2x + 2y = 4

x - y = -4 ...... 1

Also MO = OQ

3x =  2y + 4

3x-2y= 4 ....2

from 1; x = -4 + y

Substitute into 2:

3x-2y= 4

3(-4+y)-2y = 4

-12+3y-2y = 4

-12+y = 4

y = 4 + 12

y = 16

Since x = -4+y

x = -4 + 16

x = 12

<em>Hence x = 12 and y = 16</em>

In a choir, the ratio of boys to girls is 5 to 6. There are 10 boys in the choir. What is the total number of boys and girls in
Aleks [24]

Answer:

5:6 --> 10:12

Step-by-step explanation:

A good way to think of this is to provide a perspective: there are 5 boys every time there is 6 girls. So if there is 10 boys, that means there would be 12 girls (because 5 *2 = 10 and 6*2 = 12).

tl:dr: 5 *2 = 10 so 6*2 = 12

Math problem help me. I got it wrong I think
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The answer is B

Step-by-step explanation: After solving this equation using y=mx+b

I got y=-4x+7

So they give us the slope which is negative 4

so you would throw in the x coordinate with the slope and multiply to get y=-12+7

then you would use the y coordinate to substitute the Y

-5=-12+7

i add twelve on both sides and end up with the y intercept being 7]

so I add them into the equation and got y=-4x+7
