Answer:

x= 1.069Y

Step-by-step explanation:

kilometers = y

miles = x

y>x

5x = 8.045y

therefore,

8.045 divided by 5 to get value of X

hence,

X = <u>1.069Y</u>

The sum of two segments are 75 cm, and one the segments are four times the other. Calculate the measurement of each segment

iVinArrow [24]

The length of one segment is 15 cm and other segment is 60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of one segment and y be the length of other segment

Then according to given statement

x+y=75 Eqn 1

And

one the segments are four times the other

x=4y Eqn 2

$Putting\ x=4y\ in\ equation\ 1$

$4y+y=75\\5y=75\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{75}{5}\\y=15\\Putting\ y=15\ in\ eqn\ 2\\x=4(15)\\x=60$

Hence,

The length of one segment is 15 cm and other segment is 60 cm
