Answer:  14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are similar, that means their side lengths are proportional.

Therefore, \frac{WX}{AB} = \frac{WZ}{AD}.

We can plug in the values we know:

Let x be the missing measurement.

\frac{16}{24} =\frac{x}{21}

We can simplify 16/24 to 2/3.

2/3 = x/21.

We can cross multiply:

42 = 3x

Therefore, x = 14

A company that offers tubing trips down a river rents tubes for a person to use and "cooler" tubes to carry food and water. A gr
mestny [16]

Answer: the group rented 11 Person tubes and 4 cooler tubes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two types of tubes, Person tube and cooler tube.

Let P represent number of Person tubes that the group rented.

Let C represent number of Cooler tubes that the group rented.

The group spends $270 to rent a total of 15 tubes and Person tube $20 Cooler tube $12.50. Two linear equations can be derived from the above information

P + C = 15 - - - - - - - 1

20P + 12.5C = 270 - - - -- - - 2

Substituting P = 15 - C into equation 2,

It becomes

20(15-C) + 12.5C = 270

300 - 20C + 12.5C = 270

- 20C + 12.5C = 270 -300

7.5C = - 30

C = 30/7.5 = 4

P = 15 - C

P = 15 - 4 = 11

X : y = 5 : 3<br> and<br> x + y = 56<br> Work out the value of x - y
Otrada [13]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

x / y = 5 / 3, then 3x = 5y , x = 5/3y

we can type 5/3y instead of x ;

5/3y + y = 8/3y = 56, then y = 21

.

now let's find x ;

x - 21 = 56, then x = 35

x - y = 35 - 21 = 14
