Answer:
x=1.25, y=1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles formed (one triangle with side lengths of 5, 7, 8 and another with sides 5+x, 10, and 7+y) are similar, because they share the same angle measures.
Now, 2 sides given that we can compare ratios with are the side with length 8, and the side with length 10. 10/8= 1.25, which is the ratio of the sides on these 2 triangles.
Now we want to find what the side '5+x' is equal to. To do that we can use our ratio, and multiply 5 by 1.25 to find '5+x'. This is 6.25. To find x, all we need to do is subtract 5 from 6.25, which is 1.25.
Let's find y now. Do the same thing that we did with the side '5+x'; find what '7+y' is by multiplying 7 by 1.25, which is 8.75. 8.75-7= 1.75.
Hope this helps! :)
The answer would be 32/5 or 6 2/5 or 6.4

Answer:
10.8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the distance using the distance formula:
We then substitute (-3,4) as
and (6,-2) as
.
#8 is kind of a handful. But if you just look at what 'y' is doing as 'x' increases ... no matter where you look, 'y' is always decreasing whenever 'x' increases, so that's certainly not a 'direct' relationship.
#9 is correct. Good work.
<span>perimeter of a rectangular rug is 30 yd
P= L+L+W+W
</span><span>P= 9+9+W+W
P= 18 + 2W
</span><span>18 + 2W = 30
2W = 30-18
</span><span>W= 12/2 = 6
A= L x W
A= 9 x w
</span><span>A= 9 x 6 = 45 yd square</span>
