Answer:
x= 16 and y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
1 st equation ; x+y = 25
2 nd equation ; x- y = 7
from 1 st equation
x = 25 - y
now putting value of x in 2 nd equation
x- y = 7
25 - y-y = 7
25 -2y =7
25-7 = 2y
18 = 2y
18/2 = y
y = 9
again
putting value of y in 1 st equation
x = 25-y
x = 25-9
x= 16

Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding segments of similar triangles are proportional. Here, the similar triangles are ...
ΔABC ~ ΔADE
so the relationship between the sides is ...
BC/BA = DE/DA . . . . . . we put the unknown value in the numerator
x/4 = 12/(4+8)
x = 4(1) = 4
The length of side x is 4.
