Assuming that both triangles are an exact copy of one another, it is safe to assume that 3y-7 is equal to 41. Set up an equation
3y-7=41
Add 7 to both sides
3y=48
Divide both sides by 3
y=16
Now to find PN.
Based on what we know, we can assume that MP = PN. Let's make some equations!
MP = 17x-8 PN = 11x+4
17x-8 = 11x+4
Subtract 11x from both sides
6x-8 = 4
Add 8 to both sides
6x = 12
Divide by 2
x=2
Substitute 2 in for x in the equation for PN
11(2)+4
Multiply 11 by 2
22+4 = 26
PN = 26

Answer:5 + /- sqrt35
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearranging, we get x^2 -10x -10=0
Applying the quadratic formula,
(10 +/- sqrt(10^2 -4*-10))/2
(10+/- 2sqrt35) /2 = 5 + /- sqrt35 as the two roots.
