Answer:
y = 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The total distance between the lines j and l is 10.
The total distance between the lines k and l is 9.
To find the distance between the lines j and k we can use the given information.
10 (distance between j and l) - 9 (distance between k and l) = 1 (the distance between the lines j and k).
So the distance between lines j and k is 1.
In the given picture the distance is shown as 2y-10.
This means 2y - 10 = 1
Now we need to solve this equation to find y.
2y - 10 = 1
2y = 1 + 10
2y = 11
y = 11/2
y = 5.5
(NOTE: We are not including 4 in the process of finding the value of y because this particular line is not similar to the line where y is )
Mass equals density times volume
37+y=87
y=87-37
y=50
............................
So my opinion that choice D is right because given that figure x is inscribed in figure y so what mean that figure y is circumscribed about figure x
hope this will help you
